ok, i'll wait Smiley

Just hope my package arrives before 02/08/2013 because I wanted to create a 'birthday gift coin' with one of those aluminiums I ordered Wink
But it's not a problem if I give him the coin on a later date. It's a close friend so I see him often Smiley
I can post the Alu coins to you separately if you want - postage would be just 0.025BTC...
Hey dude, any updates from Mike?

Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

According to the date mentioned in Mike's post and the order date of this GB it seems we were too late (at least for the 1 BTC coins)...

Yes, seems our order will take a few more days to generate addresses and get stickered. It's getting closer though Smiley

Any plans for a second round? I'd be interested in a few coins, especially when the 0.1s are available Smiley

We can certainly do a second round once the first one is completed and once the 0.1BTC coins are out - I suspect they will be very popular Smiley

0.1 coins will be cool, but depends on the price...
The production cost to coin value will be higher I guess...

Probably 0.25 BTC for a 0.1 coin (without shipping and customs)

Imho this is a VERY optimistic guess.
I'd expect them between 0.3 and 0.5 per coin.

Well lets hope you'll be right Wink

By the way, the coins have not been funded yet. Should I ask Casascius to fund them right away or would it be a good idea to wait a few days after posting for them to be delivered to you?

I think it doesn't really matter much.
You received the coins, so for casascius everything is settled. I suppose he will not take responsability for a lost package when you send them out.
You could off course ask him to wait a few days and when they don't arrive, ask him if he will not fund a certain coin.
But I read somewhere that he funds every coin anyway. He doesn't want unfunded coins 'in the wild'...
(funding at a later moment is purely for customs reasons)

By the way... talking about customs...
How much did you need to pay?
