Back on the island and getting at it!
First 2026 Fully Funded book of 20 about to ship out.
😱😱😱 Do I see a pretty silver Knife in the background?!!!!
That little sterling silver knife is one of the most useful tools on the desk! Thanks! If I can get a tool in sterling silver, I will. My wax melter is a small sterling pitcher with a candle sticking out of it. Random Caribbean Treasure
Beautiful, I really dig the candle wax stamp seal!
Thanks! I love hand made items. Makes them more real to me. They tell a real story. Hand stamped, Hand sealed, Hand rolled and hand written!
They look kinda cool! - So the keys are below the silver coin?
What material is the paper made of - will it get stained easily and is it water-resistant?
Yes! They are real physical silver bitcoins placed inside a paper certificates. Keys are underneath a hologram, which can be seen on the backside of the silver round. There is another qrcode on the backside, which is small, but 3x zoom should do.
The material is thicker card stock, It had to be thicker to hold a coin. It can be stained easily and isn't water resistant, so don't spill water on them, only blood stains will be acceptable on these
. The original idea is to be used as if given by a community bank. I could tear off the left side (see perforated tear line) and keep at the bank. The bearer would take the certificate as proof of ownership. If you want the real "silver" and real "satoshi" you would have to go to the bank and present your certificate and they would match up the serial numbers and give you the real money! Not that paper fiat crap. Used like a real silver certificate. If you took a $5 silver certificate to the bank, they would give you 5x silver morgan dollars. Only difference is these are silver physical bitcoins.
I decided to keep it all intact for the collector to enjoy and do what they please with it. It was my first attempt at a paper note. I used 1700's style on them as if it is a document found in the Caribbean at the time. I'm sure they can be improved in the future or maybe team up with Polymerbit! He might have a solution with thicker material to hold real metals and more detailed Caribbean themed art. ARRRRRRT! Just getting started.
Art like this old depiction of gold mining by the Spanish in Puerto Rico!
There is 100x 3g copper, 50x 3g silver and 17x 3g gold rounds available for an upcoming piece that I'm excited about! Its a collab with another collector community. Hopefully we bridge a connection and expose them to physical bitcoins. Most collectors will love it. I'll sell a few I suppose, but will probably hoard most of the gold! 60-90 days out.
