Awesome find! It is not an official Disney release I assume? Or is it? Any more Donald Duck or Disney themed stuff out there?
Correct, this is not official Disney merchandise.. or the other 2 characters companies: Richie Rich owned by Harvey Comics and The Monopoly Man owned by Hasbro Thanks for the specific info. Just wondering, isn't it extremely high risk to copyright-infringe a brand of a massive company like Disney - I read an article (not in English, so no link here), about a case where customs checked and found Disney-plagiarism items leading to a litigious value fo 2.5 M Euro. Immediately involving a tiny army of Disney lawyers. So even just owning such an item seems like a risk not worth taking to me. It's not owning it, but the produces who would get fined. There was one case I heard of where a day-care center for little kids were contacted by Disney because they painted a Mickey Mouse on the wall for the kids and someone had randomly posted a pic of it on social media Disney saw this and told them to remove it.... Being that, come January 2024, Mickey Mouse will no longer be protected by copyright, as it has run out and will now fall into public domain.... kinda like the Happy Birthday song!! What a sad kindergarden story. lol But not suprising. Hmm, as far as I know if you import plagiarized goods you can get in legal trouble, too. Maybe it depends on the amount - if it looks business sized (for resale etc), it's probably are more major issue. Wow, can't wait for all the Mickey Mouse art that will be about to pop out after that date. Did some reading on the topic, seems like the copyright would have run out 1984 already, but Disney somehow managed to lobby for an extension. wtf For Donald Duck it will take until 2029 to become public domain.

Disney is notorious for finding ways to extend their grip on revenue-generating properties..... Why do think they keep remaking all their animated classic films into live action ones?

Just found a hand-poured bismuth coin with the Bitcoin logo on eBay. I've received mine today and it looks awesome. Get yours here: https://www.ebay.com/itm/175670020020

Looks awesome. Is the cat included (see ebay)? What kind of material is bismuth? For some reason my mind has marked it as "toxic" but not sure. Just checked wikipedia, it says an intoxication is unlikely to happen but similar to that of lead poisining. Just don't eat the coin I guess.

Just checked wikipedia, it says an intoxication is unlikely to happen but similar to that of lead poisining. Just don't eat the coin I guess. Lol. The cat is definitely not included. But it's quite adorable, though. I've read that Bismuth is rarer than Silver and it's safe to the touch. It gets that "crystalized" effect when it gets in contact with the air and other elements (oxidization). This creates Bismuth oxide which gives the metal a "rainbow color". There's someone called "The Bismuth Smith" which makes art out of this metal. I'd suggest you check it out here: https://www.thebismuthsmith.com/That said, I think I'm going to let my Bitcoin round made out of Bismuth to oxidize for a bit. It's just to see that "rainbow effect" on the coin. It will look even better in my opinion.

Zuru just released a "Series 5" of its "Mini Brands" collection. You can find an eBay listing for the Dogecoin mini coin here: https://www.ebay.com/itm/364319759665Isn't it cute?

Kinda cute, that shiba always looks cuddle-worthy. However why is there a genereic ETH logo on the other side? Kinda random and I don't see the connection to Dogecoin at all. Not familiar with mini-brands - it's similar to a kinder suprise egg?

Not familiar with mini-brands - it's similar to a kinder suprise egg? Zuru made an Ethereum mini coin, but I couldn't find it on eBay. There's one listing which includes both the DOGE and ETH mini coins, but I believe it's overpriced. You can see it here: https://www.ebay.com/itm/155640714795I own the mini Bitcoin from Series 4 and it's quite tiny. It has the same design of the standard MJB coins.

I like the name. Cool to see a Squirrelbit on ebay, hope it sells. Reminds me, I am probably putting a liquidoptions Bitopoly guy up for trade here on the forum soon. That Bitcoin Cologne... LOL! Nice to see Bitcoin slowly covering EVERY market. I wouldn't call it a copy, though. Sure, the circuit based design has similarities, but it's just avery popular theme in Bitcoin-world. It started with these cheap non-loaded BTC coins I think.

Hey y'all! I've just found one of those early silver Dogecoin bars for sale on eBay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/256265665016I think it's a good deal, but I'm not that knowledgeable when it comes to market prices for cryptocurrency collectibles. Is this a good buy? Thanks.

Is this a good buy? Thanks. That appears to be a silver plated one. If you look at the mintages here, http://bigtimespaghetti.com/mintage.htmlyou will see there were 20 pure silver (unnumbered) and 31 pure silver (numbered) and then, If you look at the pictures here, you will see one clearly marked as pure silver but is not numbered. https://imgur.com/a/gwWEYyHthe point is the silver ones are marked as pure silver - the plated ones are not. and the one on the ebay listing appears to be one of the unmarked bars.
