Topic: Alpen Coin - “Switzerland’s first ever physical bitcoin” - page 8. (Read 6512 times)

lol I keep all the notes too, got 1 from Bobby, 1 from Chris and now 2 from Frank - well and like 25 from minerjones - he labels everything because I always tend to miss something in his packaging. lol

I also recieved mine today, to replace the ones that peeled in the first shipment, and i  agree this was a much better packaging set up. they showed up perfect thanks so much. You know youre early when it comes with a hand written note as well

the packaging was much better - the coins were individually bagged, then put into a second bag with the COA - I did recommend using a bubble envelope or some fashion of keeping the coins from smacking against each other in shipping if the carrier is rough with the envelope. That being said mine went from Switzerland to Florida, USA and were not damaged in the least.

Thanks Mopar - Mine haven't shipped yet afaik. I just got the "pre-sale" email for them this past Saturday morning. Nice to see they are stepping up the game - how was the packaging this time btw? Thanks!

yes - I believe Frank has told me his intention is to make coins that are usable, shareable and cost effective - If you go with precious metals, then nobody uses them, they hoard them for the precious metals and BTC stored on them.

That being said, he may be open to it with enough suggestion and maybe in doing as a limited run? I will give him the suggestion.


he spoke nicely of you today when I lost corresponded with him.   I did not have many, but I have a peeled one if you are interested, though I am thinking you probably want one intact.

I got a series 2 coin from Frank because he likes my DigitalGoldBug Instagram page, so now I’m looking for one of the first series... Anyone that wants to sell me one? Don’t want to make a WTB thread for this, so asking here.

Sorry about that. I’m on mobile and it’s a little tougher. Thanks for your reply.

Wish they would make a gold or silver version. Obviously that will cause a huge price jump but imho makes the coin that much more desirable.

LitLitBit - almost missed your question there as its in the middle of the quote - based on the placard imaged above - they appear to be made from some Zinc alloy.

Nice waiting on a few glad I was able to get in on this sale.

Mine have arrived, see attached for a couple of pictures - will post more but have to leave - Also videos are processing - will upload links when I get back home.

If anyone has extra version 2 alpen coins, I can buy 2-3 of them.

well there ya go lol a couple orders like that and they go fast. he might need to do larger batches lol

I got 30 of the second batch this past weekend when I got an email about it. I think anyways. LOL.

I need some original low serial aplen coins. Pm me.

is that a dusting attack on 209? and surprised to see mine funded, they were not supposed to be funded until after the arrived I thought.

also in thinking about it some more, if anyone has 176 and/or gets 376 I would be interested in trading and/or buying them.

Updated addresses. #209 has some extra bits for a lucky person. 378,379,382,383 are a little short currently.

well if ChiBitCTy wants the 2 pairs (offered to trade 2 of my originals for 2 of his and sell him 2 matching matte coins) then those are his. However, I would have 2 sets left (one peeled though) I would be willing to sell you the one unpeeled set or both if you want the peeled set as well - send me a DM.

scratch what I said about the extras. I have none now.

Indeed, that sounds fair.
I'm a little bit pissed right now because I already missed the first batch and was ready for the 2nd batch. I even registered myself for the newsletter but I must have missed that mail coz it landed in my spam folder.

understandable - I hate selling things for premium as well - hence why I always do raffles (I don't recall doing many auctions - if any at all)
