[Pre-Sale] 1 oz .999 Fine Silver Physical Vericoins

[haploid23]

From the looks of it, the dies are not polished, so the coins won't have a proof finish to them? This would be considered business strike I assume.

[socal]

they will be proof finished, the dies are still being prepped and hardened striking begins Friday, this was just a lead first impression

The Veri First coin assembled and ready to go 

Now only have to assemble the other 99 and compose and print the Certificates of Authenticity and they will be ready to ship so lets say about two weeks from now give or take

I like the shiny/matte from back.

How will users know the address of each coin?

Also I assume these coins are without face value and operate more like silver wallets?

Each coin comes with a Certificate of Authenticity that will have the public address AND QR code on it and you are correct the First Edition coins do not have a Face Value attached

Just a suggestion:

Having the address somewhere visible on the coin itself will make it much less of a hassle should an owner of a coin loser their COA which has the address associated with it, especially if they buy more than one coin.

As far as I can tell the only distinction is the number on the hologram to help figure out (on your end) should a COA go missing at some point, to determine the coin address.

Just some thoughts.

Noted, problem was to make custom holograms with the "window" all the hologram manufacturers I spoke to wanted $3000 - $5000 just for custom dies which is money I don't have, and If I had each coin number sequentially that would have been another few hundred per coin because each coin would have required its own mould, If you know ways around these two issues I am open to suggestions, thanks

Numbering coins in a relatively cost effective manner would be via an engraving machine. This would remove having to make a new die for each coin and would allow you to do it for future coin runs should you create any new lines of coins.

I'm not sure what you budget is but that might be an avenue to look into.

AHHHHH good Idea I can look into it that would be MUCH more cost effective then an individual die for each coin

UPDATE:

I have the first 50 coins assembled but opening all the Airtite cases ripped up my finger nails (literally, there is bleeding under several of my fingernails) so I will have to take a break from assembling for a few days in the mean time I will begin working on the Certificates of Authenticity.

I recommend using a thin knife to open the airtights. It will not touch the coin, and any mark left on the case is tiny and better then having ruined nails.

On an unrelated note, are they supposed to be called airtites or air-tights ... I never came to a conclusion

I usually use the blade of a scissors to open them.

[socal]

ya think I might try the scissors trick, I didn't want to mark up the cases which is why I didn't try it, The damn Mint apparently didn't package the cases well enough I have found  one case with a slight crack in it

[socal]
