would it be an issue that it isnt perfectly round though? so would slide/move around within the holder?

Nope! Wink

"We will also custom cut gaskets to fit “odd” shaped coins."

UPDATE #1: The first batch of silver, copper, and 1/4oz gold coins will ship at week's end. The remaining orders will ship once finished. (Handcrafting each coin takes a bit of time.)

UPDATE #2: Our new Spanish Treasures Collection is now available for purchase directly on our website (BitcoinPenny.com) for those who prefer the purchasing power of dirty fiat (PayPal / credit card).

UPDATE #3: Finally, after many months and years, several new projects which we have been patiently and quietly developing have finally come to fruition. All at the same time. LOL Therefore, some of these new projects will be announced and released simultaneously, and some will be released individually a little later in the year. Please bear with us while we mass drop some epic goodness. Grin


Are these going to be thin enough to get slabbed?  Tongue

Great question! According to the ICG website:

"ICG’s attractive, tamper-evident holder...measures approximately 3 1/4 x 2 1/2 x 3/8 inches...It holds coins, medals and tokens as large as 40 mm across and 4.5 mm thick...We will also custom cut gaskets to fit “odd” shaped coins."

Our thickest pirate treasures are only 3mm, so there is plenty of room in the ICG slabs. (I haven't checked the other grading services, but I would imagine that they are all very much the same.)

Thanks again, mateys!

Regards,
Cap'n Chris @ TBPCo.

These are cool, Chris - and loving the little treasure chest, Mopar!

The eye patch is a nice touch.  Grin

Ahoy, Kialara! Thank ye, sincerely. 'Tis always an agreeable thing, catching a kind word of appreciation for one's craft, especially from a fine fellow Captain as yerself. Smiley

UPDATE: And for the viewing pleasure of all hands aboard, a wee camera's snap of a 1oz Silver piece after a right good bit o' weighing, shaping, clipping, rolling, and filing. She's still a few leagues from finish, but she's an almost equal distance from berth. Only five more steps to go, mates! Grin

Captain Chris @ TBPCo.

Thanks for all the orders, mates!

Are these sold out yet?  Tongue

Me logs say ye still have a bonny chance at a bit of gold, silver, and copper booty!


are the bitcoin prices fluctuating with the bitcoin price or set?

example - the set of silvers is $350 or .014 btc

however .014 is worth 422 at current price.

Aye! The listed BTC price is six days aft and needs new rigging. (I'll try me best to keep her shipshape with a new BTC price each morning.) Regardless, fear not, me hearties! We always honor the most recent price upon billing. It's in our code, after all. Wink


Avast! Fill yer pockets now, mates! Good fortune ne'er lasts forever!

Regards,
Captain Chris @ TBPCo.

Positively awesome, fantastic work!
(I never even knew there is an actual wood based material for 3D printing.)
Maybe just a slightly darker color could be more suitable perhaps, IMHO. Or is it possible to stain it afterwards like a real wood? That would be uber-cool with a clear coat finish. And down inside a fish tank like a secret stash...  Grin

It would look better darker / this just happened to be the one I had. Hmm i can try staining it / usually 3d printd can be painted so stain should work too.

smaller box, added logo and mask - short rolls added for size reference. If some of the edges look a little rough, it is the filament - this is an actual wood based filament so its not as smooth as PLA would be. Top of the box is a little white - appears to be from the supports/brim - will try to clean that up tomorrow.

Also there is no painting involved, this is all multicolor filaments.

Thanks for the link, tread93. I'll check it out. Might learn a new trick. Smiley

FUN FACT #1: Most of these treasures are minted with Satoshi Pirate wearing his eye patch on the right side (his left). The chances of finding a special left-side eye patch (his right) on your coin is exactly 1:10!

Regards,
Chris@TBPCo.

You're welcome! Let me know what you think of it, I find it most intriguing.

I love the spin you put on these with the reverse eye patch coins!!! So basically there are 10 per denomination and are those odds also the same with the 25 1oz gold coins? No wonder you made so many dies on these!!! I was trying to figure that out.... now it makes a lot more sense to me.
