Will you ship my free token to Portugal if I pay the shipping, ofcourse? Wink

Those are beautiful, BTW!

I edited my post. If I pay the shipping or the difference between US/International will I get the free token?
I didn't make myself clear when I asked.

These look pretty nice.  I like the idea, and think it might go pretty far.

 Shocked

can I get a free coin? Im in the USA. I like this idea. Now im starting to think banks/individual companies/governments could potentially mint bitcoins and keep the same amount in reserve to allow for a small amount of physical currency as well.

Very interesting. Nice to see a different system of attaching value than the "breakable code" used by other coins/bills.

(had to type this twice my browser refreshed the page in the middle of me typing :<)

finished reviewing you site.

It would be nice if you added an about us page. Include a little information about you and your partners if your willing to, definitely put the business address there again.

You should make it more clear that the coin must be mailed back to be able to redeem it. (not a big deal but on the exchange page you call it the "coin return form" twice but the name of the pdf is "tokenreturnform")

Its awfully nice of you to return back bitcoins at the highest sell price of the day. You should also include information about which site your getting your price from I assume mtgox?

Current Sell Price per 1 Bitcoin token:  $5.32
Current Sell price 1 Bitcoin token in Bitcoin: 1.08 Bitcoin
"sell" price should maybe change to "exchange" price?

the last thing I could think of is to add in the FAQ how to exhange/redeem a coin. make it clear that it must be mailed back to you.

Interesting notion, essentially issuing a bitcoin-backed currency. 1-bitcoin as the lowest denomination seems a bit high however. I would be interested in reviewing one if its still available.

Thanks for your comments,

A few more website additions, including an "about us" page is in the works.

We only recently decided to brand our product a "token" and not a coin, so some of our original forms and pdfs may still use the old terminology, we will remedy that.

Our exchange page has the instructions on how to redeem the coin. I think making it more clear the token must be mailed back is a great idea.

Thanks for your helpful points.

Is the code engraved? I couldn't tell from their pics they had up.

I received mine as well.  The size is nice.  It is pretty hefty too, slightly larger than a quarter and about twice as thick.  It came with a plastic protector.

Looks really professional, hopefully this is something that takes off.  It would be pretty cool to be able to use these as an alternate form of hard currency... Cash is so last year Smiley

Received my 1BTC coin today. I took some photos of it too.


Didnt have any currency coins but I did find a few no value tokens from an old arcade and park.



The middle of the coin is reflective like a mirror but not at every angle.


In this picture you can see the reflective middle very well.
