between a rock and a block!
Excuse me, 0.16BTC for shipping? Please find a better shipping provider, because this is fucking insane. It looks like BTCC is trying to make some extra money with shipping. 0.16BTC is currently $97 and there is no way in hell you can justify that. I have had insured (including Track&Trace) packages shipped to me, from the US, that were over 5KG for less than $50!
Maybe not... If it's via FedEx express/overnight worldwide and they pay for insurance, the $97 is in the ballpark... But not sure about shopping methods/details.  Some 3rd party insurance products won't even insure your shipments unless you use overnight services for example.

BTCC today launched its fifth physical bitcoin product -- the V-Series Half Bitcoin.
 
The V-Series Half Bitcoin is BTCC's most immaculate physical bitcoin collectible. We refined our minting process to create a coin with a smooth finish, superior lustre, and superbly defined legend and relief.
 
The result is a meticulously crafted pure titanium physical bitcoin that is as pristine as the uncirculated bitcoins that it contains.

The coin BTCC today introduced was made using a new manufacturing process focused on customer convenience. The Half Bitcoin is the first BTCC Mint collectible to contain a serial number. It is also the first BTCC Mint physical bitcoin to contain a scannable QR code that will make it easy to import each coin's private key into a bitcoin wallet.

The Half Bitcoin is also the first BTCC collectible to measure 39 millimeters in diameter, the same size as US one-ounce Silver Rounds. At $330, however, the Half Bitcoin is worth more than 15 times the Silver Round's $20 cost.
 
The obverse of the Half Bitcoin has a legend that reads "BTCC MINT," "HALF BITCOIN," "V Series," "2016," and "Titanium." The obverse also contains a relief containing the bitcoin symbol and the BTCC logo, which together represent the combined trustworthiness of bitcoin and BTCC -- the world's first and most successful cryptographic currency and the world's longest-running bitcoin exchange. The two symbols are encased by two laurels that indicate the ascendancy of bitcoin and BTCC's vision of a future in which everyone uses bitcoin and BTCC's services.
 
The legend on the reverse of the coin reads "IN CRYPTO WE TRUST" and "500,000 BITS." It also contains three stars, which represent the generation number of the bitcoin block reward. The back of the coin also has a secure, tamper-evident hologram with a half bitcoin private key underneath it.
 
The Half Bitcoin sells for 0.55 BTC on the BTCC Mint Store. Orders for the Half Bitcoin will open today, Monday, September 26th, 2016. Shipments will begin on Thursday, September 29th, 2016.
