I have both a 1 BTC and 1 LTC version.  Very cheap "plasticky" looking, the public key on the back is falling apart since day one.  Non existent customer service when buying direct and about 5 emails from me to Banx Mint to fund them.  Easily the worst experience I had buying from a manufacturer.  Coins are also very thick so may not be able to be graded.  I gave them a lot of feedback which I doubt made any difference.

But if you buy from this ebay seller, YMMV rather than buying from banxmint themselves.

Ha... should've guessed that you had some of these
You should make/offer a virtual tour of your collection and charge admission.....

lol.  I try to collect one of every wallet (except the more expensive Casascius pieces that are out of my budget).  I often search on google for some of the more obscure pieces that dont post on the boards here.

If you're looking for some of those lesser known makers, be sure to have a look at my earlier thread where I was hoping to find some new coins.

Much of my collection will be shown in elianite's bitcoin encyclopedia.

The head office in in Wan Chai one of my favourite places in Hong Kong and possible all of Asia. If only I could go into business with them and need a business trip. I will try find out who they are who manufacture them as I am always hesitant to buy from anonymous suppliers.

Thanks.

The encyclopedia should be ready by next month.  I volunteered to assist with it, so I took photos of most of my collection, researched all the specs of each coin, and have been editing all the text that Matthew R. and elianite wrote.   I'm not seeing any money for it, but just wanted to help out.

My best guess, is that it will be about 250 pages at this point.  Its been a major undertaking trying to conduct research on every single physical bitcoin and non-wallet token ever made to date.

Definitely appreciated for all you have been contributing and I bet it was a decent amount of work.  Hanging on the edge of my seat for this book.   

On topic, the Banx coins look overpriced and I wouldn't be jumping on them at that price point.

You're welcome.  I estimate I've volunteered about 120-160 solid hours of work into this project.

Regarding the Banx coins, I would not recommend them unless someone is a completionist like me who is trying to collect everything.  The quality of the coins are very poor.

bithalo, can we at some point have an e-penis contest and compare collections?

Can't say I've heard that expression before.  I'll see if I can put together some photos of my physical coins in the next day or so.  Many of them will be shown in the upcoming encyclopedia.

You haven't? Well, Urban Dictionary holds all the answers.

Anyway, that sounds good! We should let people vote on the most impressive collection, to make it a bit more exiting (if you don't mind). My overview thread is ready (even though I would have loved to add a few new items).

I'm jealous that your pictures will be used in the upcoming encyclopedia. So you got a point already!

I feel like I have a pretty solid collection myself, but lack all that variety. 90% of my stash is all Casascius followed by some Lealana and Silver Wallets. I also have a few others here and there like Microsuls etc..

Edit: forgot I have 1 of every Titan also

[bithalo]

I definitely couldn't compete with my Casascius collection to blazed or monkeynuts

My Casascius collection is as good as non-existent, so I can't win over the crowd with that.

I have 3. A brass 0.5 BTC, a MS66 brass 1 BTC (2013) and another brass 1 BTC (2013) which should get an easy MS67 grade. I'd love to buy a silver 1 BTC but I have a lot of other things on my to-buy list .

I do have a few, but all redeemed or blank, so not worth much. Also, my cash flow isn't big enough (yet) to justify getting Cas. coins.

Anyway, this is getting way off-topic. bithalo hit me up once you are ready.

Will do.  I don't have the energy to go into as much depth of every coin as you did.  I can take pics of each display case and list the coins in each one.

Good enough right? If you need help, just send me a message.
