Hi  Smiley collectable enthusiasts, has anyone ever worked with a manufacturer and had some custom coins made? With your own design inputs.
I tried searching around the forms for info could not find much.

Idea was thinking you can just send the pub address batches and then affix your isolated priv keys afterwords for simplest security.

Preferably looking for a US/CAN facility but China or Europe could work. Let me know or if you could recommend someone. Thanks in advance.

What metal would you want to use? How many coins? What size? How complex is the design, black/white or 3D?

I’ve done quite a few of my own coins including with additions like colorization and 24kt god highlighting. You can view some here: https://nastyfans.org/mint

It usually takes about 2 months to complete the process and the hidden expense to most people is the cost to craft the dies that you stamp the coins with. Good luck!

Amazing work OgNasty! You are a true Og haha. Your designs are good quality. Thanks for finding this post. Was thinking to start with .999 Ag 3d textured (imprints and thin outprints design) double sided. Had about a $5-15k USD budget in mind for maybe 2 moulds or whatever could be done. I'm on a startup budget, maybe I am dreaming lol. If the facility had a laser type etcher that would be bonus for the pub keys. One limited edition and one for down the road commercial distribution. Not sure the quantities at this time probably low to start.

I studied mech and a bit of metallurgy for a few years during my Eng. undergrad so its right up my alley. But have no contacts in the minting field. Would love to do some rare hard steel alloys like W, or even carbides, but they have very high melt temps so would need a special facility for this. Cut or extrusion +laser is out there but kinda wanted to start with some traditional melts and to keep the initial startup costs down. Are you available for consultation?

Charlie Shrem made one with BIP38 encryption...

I even had an encrypted BIP38 private key engraved on the inside and keep a few Satoshis on it for fun

Rings and jewellery would be cool! I had this idea long time ago too.

We all known how engagement and wedding bands just lose value over time...but btc embedded now we are onto something. I saw good quality laser ring inner band engravers starting at like $20k. You can also get manual hand punch style.
