Looks neat and I know I have a couple entries in for the coin.   Grin

What does the hologram side of the coin look like when toned and is it heat or electrical toning?

"Chemical" toning and the holograms were applied after the toning process. On most coins there was no toning on the reverse side of the coin, which was just a side effect of how I toned the coins.

Thanks for the information, I wasn't thinking chemical as I thought the holograms were still applied but that makes sense.  I have experience with heat toning but it depends on the contact metal and temperature control to get a clean appearance.

The coins' composition is copper alloy (85% copper), so it is highly reactive to even the slightest atmospheric changes. There wasn't any direct contact with the chemical (sulfur).

Quick update on the 15 (actually 17 since I miscounted, but that is a separate issue), extra coins and what I am doing with them:

1.) 4 gray address coins are being sent to ANACS for grading. Most, if not all of these will be made available for sale when I get them back.

2.) I've been experimenting with artificial toning (most have some rainbow-ish toning) and was able to get some interesting results with 7 gray address coins. I have yet to see any physical bitcoins with artificial toning, so I believe this is a first. I'll be making most, if not all of these for sale in auctions (I'm currently also open to offers). I will note (in a pgp signed message on ravenbit.com), which gray addresses were artificially toned.

3.) I'll be giving 1 of the 7 coins away to a past customer: If you purchased a Node Bronze roll from me you will be eligible to win the toned coin.  Each roll purchased gets you one entry, and I'll be picking the winner out of a hat - just like I did for the roll distribution. (e.g. if you purchased 5 rolls, you get 5 of the 50 entries). I won't be shipping the coin until I've sold all of the toned coins I decide on selling.


It was difficult to get a good picture of the AT coins, but here is one of them for the time being:


Looks very nice.
I'll take at least 1 of the graded coins and at least 2 of the toned coins. Wink
and I like my odds for giveaway. Cheesy

Yes- I believe you have the best odds for the giveaway.

Before I start accepting offers (I may just auction all of them), I'm going to auction off a couple first so we can get an idea of what these babies are worth. Unless someone really makes an over-the-top offer  Cheesy

Keep in mind that each coin is different, some wildly different.

Received my 3 coin set from Ravenbit today, I'm very pleased with them. They were delivered quickly, great price, well packaged and nice looking coins Smiley. https://ravenbit.com/product/satoshinode-three-coin-set/

I'm now looking for a limited edition silver and brass to add to my collection.

If anyone has one for sale please get in touch or post on my WTB thread:

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/wtb-ravenbit-node-silver-ravenbit-node-brass-special-editions-1130133

I didn't realize there was a silver with a limited mintage as well, I have a limited edition brass that I may part ways with in the future.

Yeah there were only 25 silver: https://ravenbit.com/coins/nodeag/

Unfortunately I missed the end of an auction for one recently because it ended 3 hours before I was up for early work start Sad.

I know where I can buy a brass for 0.3 + shipping but was hoping to get one a bit cheaper.
