We have 4 ANACS graded coins here, now, ready to ship.  These are available on a first come, first served basis.   This is a cross post to https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=675359.msg9389288#msg9389288 since that thread is a bit stale.

These were classified by ANACS as proof grade quality coins, which is fairly rare for our production runs.  All of them are graded at PF67.  





Here's the web link for a few higher res pictures:  https://www.titanbtc.com/product/titan-one-gold/

These particular coins were pre-sold, but never left our shop and are now for sale again.  They will ship from our location in California with a numbered certificate of authenticity (production numbers are 40,41, 45, and 46.)  As always, we cover shipping and insurance for gold coins within the U.S.    

The current price, as of this moment is $2,109.00 ($1199 spot gold + $345 spot BTC + $475 Production costs + $75 grading service costs)  That price will float based on current market prices for gold and BTC.  Customers outside the U.S. should add $50 to the price for FedEx International Express service to ensure that you have adequate tracking info and insurance.

If you're just hearing about Titan Bitcoins for the first time, these are similar to Casascius coins, only made in very limited edition.  The private key for the BTC that comes with these coins is sealed underneath the tamper-proof security hologram on the back of the coin. These Private Keys are printed on permanently offline, "air-gapped" computers and printers.  Immediately afterward, all digital traces of the private keys are securely deleted.  Each coin has a unique webpage that tracks it's value in realtime, so that you can verify funding state and authenticity by simply scanning the barcode on the back of the coin.

While we do also offer 2-factor authentication for other Titan Bitcoins (cold-storage wallets for which are kept in our insured safe deposit boxes), these particular gold coins all include a private key on the coin, underneath the hologram.

Bitcoin is always preferred for payment, but we're happy to accept USD in the form of cashier's checks and wire-transfers, as well as cash or check deposits at any Chase Bank location.   PM me for banking details if you need them.

And thanks again for all your support guys!

Oh now I have to send mine in to ANACS and get it graded... to date most of my Titans have gotten a MS-67 DCAM never a PF. When should should we be expecting a Platinum?  Tongue

I was pleasantly surprised when they game back with a proof grade.   Also, objectively, the appearance grade on these coins should higher, but ANACS is not really sure how to account for the hologram. 

If you're serious about wanting a platinum coin, I have a list of interested parties.  We're only going to produce enough of them to cover that list, and I don't intend to make them available publicly.

I always buy them from a friend who is most likely already on that list! I will hit him up for the platinum edition. Will it be the same design as the gold or something new and special?

If the edition run is very limited, to say under 20 pieces, I may be interested.  I'd like to know also if this will be the same design as the other existing coins, and whether this would be a 1 ounce platinum coin.

They are a little too expensive for me but they look absolutely stunning! These will probably sell in no time!

BTC or dollars. 

Just not credit cards at the moment.

The price has dropped by $30+ as the Gold market took a fall today.  Currently its $2,074.00

The platinum coins are a new design.  Bitcoin will soon have a lady mascot.

Is it possible to be added to that list of interested parties?

It's going to be very limited, but I'm not sure exactly how many yet.  We have to wait on the sculpt to be completed before we can accurately estimate minting costs and that will determine that size of the run.  I'll add you to the list.

Please add me to that list as well. Do you have an estimate time frame?

I also have 2 quick questions. First, how many of these were made? Also, is number 40 still available? Smiley

-edit; scratch the first question I just looked at your site.

Sounds good.  Will this design be reused in any other Titan coin, or will it be unique to the platinum?

All of the Titan coins are amazing.  Congrats on the gold coin PF rating that is awesome and overdue.
Makes me want to sell some of my miners to get a platinum coin if you do a run. Fingers crossed I can save enough in time.  Smiley

We're actually going to be making a total of less than 150 of these coins for 2014.  I sent you a PM regarding what's left.

Besides the Platinum coin, do you anticipate anything new for 2015?
