Here it is, finally! I am delighted to present to you guys the 4th and final suit of the Cryptodeck...... THE HEARTS!
I can only apologise for the time taken on producing these! This run has been crippled by delays because of the virus but its done at last, albeit a bit later than I had anticipated. This thread will be for the auction of the Heart cards only, for information on the Joker raffle, please see my other post on the board which will run in tandem with this.
This auction will have 13 lots which I will list underneath and will consist of the Hearts only.
What is included in each lot is as follows
1x Unique .999 solid silver playing card
1x Polymerbit first ever COA, done on a polymer medium
1x Magnetic acrylic case
1x Polishing rag
All of which will arrive contained within a black gusseted envelope
These .999 silver playing cards are the standard poker size, rounded up (65mmx 90mm) and are 0.5mm thick. This is the closest dimensions i could use to achieve a weight of very close to 1oz. They did not arrive to me in a polished state so I have done my very best to get them to as close to a mirror finish as possible.
There WILL be imperfections on these cards due to the fact they have been hand polished! I have done my best to get the finish to as high a level as possible, they absolutely DO have a mirror finish but at the same time, because of the nature of them being hand finished please dont expect a machine perfect and defect free card! The silver, because it was rolled, has lots of tiny dimples which are impossible to remove without the removed pieces getting caught on the polishing mop and dragging across the surface. I have been as open about the finish on these as possible and got the photographer to try his best to make sure these flaws are visible in the pictures taken.
Each card takes about 6 hours total machine time to make and is done by use of a fiber laser. The design was lifted from an existing set of playing cards and has been changed, not only to include the Bitcoin B, but also to incorporate the circuitry which serves as the digital theme.
On each card, EVERY pip has the circuitry design on it which can be seen quite clearly under a magnifying glass, it is very very fine detail and is almost undetectable to the human eyeball!
Please note, that i know this is a Diamond pip, however, the same circuitry is imbedded within the Hearts too....
The COA provided in the package was done by Polymerbit on the forum and is made, funnily enough, from polymer. It is a work of art in itself and as far as I am aware, is the first COA that they have done. It is absolutely beautiful
Something else which I think is noteworthy is that all of these cards have been sent to the Edinburgh Assay office for testing and each one bears my unique hallmark, the 999 to verify purity and the logo for the Edinburgh office itself. This is VERY small and i have done my best to picture it here....
Here are some pics which include every card in the set....
for some reason, I am missing a four from these imnages. it kinda looks like a 6 TBH, only with 2 less pips
