Interesting, "Expected delivery is between 5 to 7 working days for customers who pay via Bitcoin we have the capacity to ship over one hundred coins per day."

How long ago were the orders placed?

I believe May 25 was the first day, and when I ordered.

Thanks, sounds like yours should be arriving this week I would think.  Did the seller provide tracking or is no update on the shipment provided?

I think the coin looks really good and am looking forward to someone receiving one and posting pictures.  Smiley

No shipping info.  Just a generic order placed email.  The coins looks really nice. 

It has a deep relief and 2oz antiqued Silver like an Alitin but has a holo.

Yeah, the holo looks really well designed and the antiqued look is great.  Does anyone know what size air-tite would fit these coins?

The coin has a diameter of 50 mm, so a Y65 capsule with a Y50 ring  is what you need. http://www.air-tites.com/coin_size_chart.htm

Same here.  It's strange because I couldn't recall specifically where I first heard about it and just figured it was on here but I did a few quick searches and I think this thread is the only mention of it anywhere on BCT.  I usually vet stuff more thoroughly than I did in this case, hence the thread.  I'll be sure to update when it arrives.

Agreed.

These guys were stealth, because I usually find out about all physical bitcoins on this forum.  I happened to find them through google searches.

Thanks for the size chart.  I saw these coins a couple months back during a google search as well but they weren't for sale at the time.

Well they are for real  Grin
Got mine today and it's really nice.  I am a terrible awful photographer but here goes anyway...
Comes in a sleek black box.  The COA and barcode are under a flap.  Coin is in an airtight.  The raised letters give off a really cool effect.
Overall I am very happy.

Just checked back on the website for the status of this project and it looks like the images were all switched to an updated "final version".  Luckily when I saw this coin I thought it was really cool and I saved the pictures I found or else I may have never been able to make this comparison.  I recompiled them into a before and after in case users are unsure what I am referencing with the coins design/depth changing.  One was sold as a pre-order and the other is the final release.   Wink

original final - original final

I'm not sure if manufacturing tolerances came into play right before the actual production of coins but the original images looked way better IMO and I was thinking about making a purchase based off the original images.

Don't get me wrong, I still think the coin/packaging is a work of art but I believe the price point was more suitable (especially with the $100 increase that's coming) for the previous coin that was replaced.



If Mandy from Infinitum could chime in here that would be greatly appreciated as I was unable to find a notice on the site as to why the design in the pre-order state was quite different from the final state.   Smiley

The effect is called an "antique" finish, and it is popular because it gives the coin's strike more depth. I prefer pure silver, but I don't mind it as much as painted or colorized silver coins.
