I'd probably buy a few just to hold and sell off on a later date when they're worth more : )

nice coin!
I'll certainly order some of them

I would like to ask or this shoes are included?

Thank you, Chris. It's been a pleasure from my end, too. =)

You're correct. We plan on issuing a slightly different version of the Bitcoin Penny commemorative coin each year. In fact, we've considered turning it into a contest with the winner's initials on that year's coin. Who knows? That's still in the "here's a cool idea..." phase.

And we're not limiting the production quantity for the 2-packs. I think you're right, limiting the production run might add to the collectible nature and help them sell very well, but we're really not trying to make a highly collectible coin. Rather, we want a fun, inexpensive novelty bitcoin that one wouldn't mind giving away to a stranger to help spread the news about bitcoin in general. (We usually carry an extra one in our pocket for this reason.) Our Bitcoin Penny has been called "cool bitcoin swag," and I think that's in line with our vision. Sure, it would definitely be nice to sell a few more and make a few more dollars, but at this point in time we're more interested in offering a fun, inexpensive novelty bitcoin that helps spark interest in the new bitcoin technology as a whole. (All while looking quite stylish if you like to rock penny loafers!) Or for a more concrete example: "Hey, are you wearing pennies in your penny loafers? Cool!" "Close. It's not a penny, though. It's a Bitcoin Penny. Here, I have an extra one." "Cool! Bitcoin, what's that?" "I'm glad you asked..." (That's generally how it goes down.)

Please let me know if you have any other questions. I'm always happy to help.

Regards,
Christopher

Got my order in, looking forward to seeing the product! Has been a pleasure dealing with Christopher fwiw.

Question, I like that these are identified as 2015. I presume if things go well you will have 2016, etc? How many are planned for 2015? I think if there is a cap to the number, it will add to the collectible nature and help these to sell very well...

Thank you, Possum. I'm guessing we were both inspired by US coins. We played on the penny theme for obvious reasons, with a little bit of quarter thrown in for good measure. =)

They all look like Casascius...cool idea though.

Shipping to the Netherlands would be only $1.99 USD via bitcoin sale (the discounted international shipping price for forum members) and only $5.99 USD through the website using PayPal (including Visa and MasterCard).

UPDATE: Our shipping policy has changed in order to offer all forum members 15% OFF the entire order.

Our shipping charge is now a flat fee of $1.99 in the Continental USA. (Sorry, Alaska and Hawaii.) And shipping to any other global destination is only $5.99!

How much is the shipping to The Netherlands?

Thanks, everyone. Yes, they're copper. And we didn't mention it on the website, but each coin has an ultra-thin protective finish to slow the natural patina that develops on copper surfaces. (Everyone loves a shiny, new penny!) However, you can always remove the protective finish with a soft towel and a little Brasso, Maas, etc., if you want to speed up the patina process. I did that with my own lucky Bitcoin Penny, and it developed a GORGEOUS patina after a few weeks--chocolate with hints of olive. Absolutely beautiful! I'll try to snap a photo today or tomorrow.)


Thank you. I'm not a very good photographer, but I try my best. As for the slogans, I wanted something with a US penny theme, and there's only so many ways one can add a twist to the original words. That said, I kind of like the slogans.


I completely agree! We're still working on building a proper shopping cart to include direct bitcoin sales. Until it's done, we're stuck doing things manually. =/

Thank you again, everyone. And please let me know if you have any more questions or comments. We appreciate them all. =)

Christopher

These look real nice and shiney
May order a 2-pack, maybe add a payment option for Bitcoin rather than having to email you? That may keep some load off you...

The pics look indeed nice, but 'In Code We Trust' and 'E-Currency Unum' are not my
favourite slogans to be honest.

These look pretty nice...going to order a few.

I just checked their website and they seem to be copper coins.
I'll be ordering some of these. They look cool.

Cool! Nice work.

What are the coins made of?
Pictures look really nice!
