Next I'll try to make one from brass. I like the idea of engraving an bitcoin address.

Yeah, cool!

Could you punch a couple of holes through the B?  I like topologically interesting money.

And if you want to make it the absolutely coolest coin in the world, generate a new bitcoin address, send 1 bitcoin to it, and then engrave that address on the coin.

Then you have physical currency that the owner can independently check to make sure the bitcoin backing it hasn't been spent.

I just made a "real" bitcoin. They'll eventually be made of real metal instead of glass epoxy + copper once I have better tools.

Pretty cool.  A gold coin like this would be nice.

Anyone knows someone who could mint it ?
