The coins look good. Just wondering why your shipping prices are so high. I recently ordered coins and the international shipping cost me 0.1 BTC.

Registered mail via USPS along with all of the packaging that goes into the coins: capsules, coa, leatherettes etc.

Also shipping is static no matter how many coins you purchase.

[steelboy]

Your bulk pricing for the 0.5s works out the same as buying 20 singles. Is that right?

[smoothie]

Good catch. I made the proper adjustments for the discount of 20 of the 0.5 BTC coins.

Thanks for pointing that out. I must have overlooked it.

[Noitev]

Will you give me serial number 1 if i order now?

I have no plans to sell them not loaded.

Hm, I see. Alright then.

Perhaps I will create a 0 denomination Bitcoin bar or coin (hologram pair) for this purpose of one-off requests of unloaded or custom loaded amounts of bitcoin.

I simply have not gotten around to something like this as of yet.

[bitmarket.io]

I don't mean to be rude but I HAVE to be honest.

These look kinda lame and boring.  They are no different than Casascius' coins.  Infact his look better.  You just have a similar design and all that pops is that sticker.  The detailed work also looks boring.

You have to one up Casascius and show him what a REAL coin is.  Perhaps you can work with a material scientist and chemical engineers to refine your metals to give them a very cool and signature characteristic.  Also how about intertwining other metals and instead of a sticker to achieve that brilliance that everyone loves, how about you alter the chemistry to achieve that across the entire coin?  You know? Something that would BLOW YOU AWAY.  If I were to invest my time in something like this, I would deliver something out of the world. And you should do the same. Mind blowing work will sell like pancakes with a side of bitcoins.

For example, I am so psyco about one upping everyone that I bugged the US mint to figure out how they embedded that blue strip in the new $100 USD bills with the holographic effect. That is super cool.  I plan on having some very very very fancy and unusual business cards made for our startup that when you hand to someone, they will show all their friends because they just never saw anything so cool and new.  I'm sure anyone that saw the new Benjamin bill knows what I'm talking about.  It's super cool... but not cool enough! Anyway, it's also a marketing strategy and a work of art.

There. I had to speak my mind.

Hello smoothie,

Is the diameter 30mm for your 1 Troy Oz coins containing 25LTC ?
What is the diameter for your 1 Litecoin Nickel-plated Brass coins ? Are these coins still with the original LEALANA holograms ?

I'm really interested by those and will surely order some for Christmas.

The 1 oz silver coins are 39mm diameter.

1/2 oz silver coins are 30mm diameter.

1/4 oz silver coins are 25mm diameter.

Brass coins are ~30 mm (just shy of 30mm).

For me the finish looks better than Casascius, but I don't think Hawaiian text fits at all on the worlds first truly planetwide currency. I'm so on the fence. Why don't you seller PM me if you want to nudge towards a sell.

My goal wasn't to make it "fit" on the coin. I was trying to be original. I'm from Hawaii so for me it is fitting that a Hawaiian themed physical bitcoin be created, especially since I am part Native Hawaiian (i.e. Kanaka Maoli)

[Vanderi]

The Hawaiian text is super cool - I wish I had some deep pockets to buy a few.

Sure it is. For Hawaiians. I'm Scandinavian.
I use btc but cannot relate in any - for me - feasible way to that text.
But ofcourse this is personal. I'm not judging, trying to give feedback to the one who made the tremendeous job in minting a physical bitcoin. I have heard that feedback is appreciated among producers. If it doesn fit and the maker is offended, I am sorry.

That is all.

Nope, not offended. To each his own opinion.

I guess I could say the same thing about Latin lettering on any coin, it doesn't relate to me. Most of our legal tender coins in the U.S. have this. But do I care that it has latin written on it? Not really, yet I think the coin artwork is awesome.

[hephaist0s]

I received a 1 LTC piece, a 5 LTC, and some .25 BTC and .5 BTC pieces yesterday and they all look great, but I have to say the BTC coins are really more striking in person than pictures can convey. The intricate background design appears frosted against the glossy silver background, and it's just stunning. These would make amazing gifts, as they are simply beautiful to look at -- even aside from their worth. Great work, smoothie!

And even though pictures don't do them justice, here's a picture.

[LOL]

Beautiful. Thank you Smoothie.

You're taking Casascius up on his invitation for competition, and blow Recalescence and Titan out of the water.

[smoothie]

Here is just a random bit of internal info as to some of my practices for what they're worth.  I thought I'd share just in case they could be useful, or inspire some other beneficial practice.

For the last while, I have been issuing coins with an incrementing prefix that I treat as a lot number, some of those prefixes have included... 1Ag1 1Ag2 1Ag3 1Ag4, 121 122 123 124 125 126 127 128 129 12A 12B etc

And have been using different runs to mean different coins: 1Aga 1Agb 1Agc are halfs, 1Ag1/2/3 are 1oz silver, 1Ag4/5/6/7 are gold plated silver etc...  12* are 1/2 btc brass, 13* are 1btc brass... The lot assignment is arbitrary, but at least I leave open the possibility that I can publish a meaningful list for anyone who feels they would benefit from the info.

Creating keys and numbering them this way has helped me manage supplies and helps implement some controls with respect to key creation, printing, and management.  I print keys in sheets and then cut them... each lot corresponds to exactly one whole sheet.  (so each sheet is self-identifying just by looking at the addresses, and they continue to be self-identifying after being cut).  It lowers the possibility of making mistakes because some useful intelligence can be derived from those numbers...eg....that coin that fell on the floor, are we sure we dropped it there today or could it have been left from prior to today?  When production is scaled to a multi-person team, doing this also lowers the attack surface with respect to the theoretical potential of inside fraud.

One of the biggest reasons I've done lots is in the case I somehow had the misfortune of having a large number of coins stolen at once.  Fortunately that hasn't happened, but if that were to happen, it would be much easier to publish the lot number(s) of the stolen coins (which people could memorize or keep as a very short list) so as to maximally preserve the value of the remaining lots that are not involved in the theft, helping people quickly identify their coins as uninvolved.  In order to exploit this benefit, I make every effort to make sure that each shipment contains coins from a single lot, or as few unique lots as possible.  Sometimes rolls of coins contain a mixture of lots - I try to preserve those for occasions other than shipped orders (like if I'm somehow delivering the coins, or breaking the roll apart for my own promotional purposes, or selling single coins, or whatever).

Mike,

After watching your practices and purchasing coins from you I have devised a similar mechanism for tracking coin types. I have not improved upon your mechanism but merely mimic it for the time being.

For example my newer coins start with addresses as follows:

1 LTC BRASS starts with LTC1, LTC2, LTC3... except for the "5" and "X" prefixes.

5 LTC 1/4 oz silver starts with LTC51, LTC52, LTC53...

10 LTC (except the original batch) starts with LTCX1, LTCX2, LTCX3...



0.25 BTC 1/2 oz silver starts with 1BTC1, 1BTC2, 1BTC3...

0.5 BTC 1 oz silver starts with 1BTCz, 1BTCy, 1BTCx...

These last two coins I took a central point of the vanity list:

0.1 BTC 1/4 oz silver starts with 1BTCm, 1BTCl, 1BTCk...

1.0 BTC 1 oz silver gold plated are 1BTCn, 1BTCo, 1BTCp...

New: I am going to be releasing shortly a Bitcoin brass coin with 0.1 BTC denomination which starts with 1Btc1, 1Btc2, 1Btc3...


Note: about 50% of the time the batches overlap but I try to keep an updated list of addresses I have used so that when I go to cut more keys with my epilog laser (as you do) I know what address for that coin type I used last as they are all sorted alphanumerically.

My first 1/2 oz and 1 oz Litecoin runs do not use any vanity in the addresses.

It gets confusing with so many different types and sizes of coins. So this mechanism helps to identify if I am using the correct address when generating certificates or funding the coins as well as inventory.

I have not published an up to date list of coins addresses yet, but I will sometime in the future when I get an open moment to do so (as I am sure Mike you are also slammed with orders despite disabling your site from taking orders). The list will consist of set #'s, serial #'s, addresses etc. It will be a quite complex list (perhaps I overcomplicated things in producing my coins).

But anyway, thanks again Mike for sharing. Very much appreciated.

Aloha

[smoothie]

Anyone who ordered a 4-coin set should have it go out late next week or early the following week depending upon when you placed your order.

I'll be at the Inside Bitcoins conference in Vegas this coming week. I'll have a few coins on hand for any people who want to purchase them in person. 

[hephaist0s]

The release should be next week after I return from the conference. They will show "2013" on them and will use a similar hologram to the BTC gold plated silver coins. Of course they will differ a bit to identify what holograms go with what coins.

[DM90]

Just PM'd you my order! Looking forward to getting these coins!

[MajikPiG]

I think these look very nice. I don't have the BTC to pony up for them atm, but wanted to say I love them.

I'm getting around to this. It's been quite a busy season for me. I'll likely post a list in the next several weeks. No promises on the timeframe. Stay tuned. I'll post a link here when the list is compiled.

Just ordered two coins and paid, very excited to get this in house

[worldtreasurefinders]

I had my set professionally graded and slabbed.  They all came in between MS 64 and 66, what I would consider typical uncirculated grades for bullion production coins.



I love that ANACS grades physical BTC and LTC.  As far as I know no other coin grading service will accept them.

Yeah, I don't plan to resell them for a very long time, if ever.

Also, I'm very happy that the highest graded coin was the premier coin of the set.

I honestly do not know. I've had the same issue happen to me on block-explorer.com for LTC coins yet first bits for those coins work on explorer.litecoin.net.

PM me or email me and I'll send you the full addresses so you don't need to type them in.

[geoffreyqp]

i found it on blockexplorer. but yea blockchain doesn't work.

[smoothie]

i found it on blockexplorer. but yea blockchain doesn't work.

I'm glad you were able to confirm funding and find the address via first bits.

[cyclops]

Are the coins loaded or all unloaded?

[smoothie]

Are the coins loaded or all unloaded?

They ship unloaded and once it is confirmed received by the buyer, the coins are then funded.

[worldtreasurefinders]

Also note that the COA includes the full wallet address so it's pretty easy to verify the balance of the coins using that.

I have one product that I have delayed the release of given how busy I have been. It will be released eventually. They are in my possession but it is just a timing issue.

Is it somewhat related to what I suggested?

Can we make a deal for 2 each of the 0.1s, 0.25s and 0.5s?

Thanks!

Check Smoothie's LTC thread for the answer.

i think i am blind. is it because of the counterfeits? i don't see any real statement in his litecoin selling thread. :/

It's too bad they're suspended. Good luck in the future :/

I have suspended sales to get clarification on how I can move forward within the current regulatory system regarding "money transmitting" as FinCEN puts it.

Although I disagree on their definition of what "money transmitting" is and isn't concerning Bitcoin/Litecoin, I have taken the cautious route and am getting further clarification on how to proceed.
