Funny that you mention the capsules...AT101ET...one of my coins was loose when I received them.

If you had some problem with the package shipped please let me now so we can work it out.

The coin was loose in the mailing package, but I had put it in a new capsule anyway a while back. No worries.

Have a free bump with this question: Is there anyone willing to part with their bhCoins v1 and v2 coins? I have v3 and v4, but I need the previous two to complete my collection!

We have reserved the first 10 coins of each series for future auctions. But in the meantime we will publish them in our website (in development) with a premium buy now price..

Sorry to be bumping this up but I've only just opened up my package as I've been away for a while.
I received the 4 coins I ordered together with the 4 envelopes containing the other keys for assembly.
The coins look nice and shiny but aren't perfect. They've all got some marks/scuffs on that takes away from the overall appearance. The holograms are nice and simple but are quite small. I can't imagine what is must have been like putting them on...
I was also wondering what capsules you use. The coins feel like they want to burst out the capsules at any minute...
Anyway, overall very nice coins. Thank you

OP has offered for me to purchase a discounted "Set" of the coins through their store on OpenBazaar but I am not familiar with it and feel it is overkill since I don't utilize OB as of now.

Has anyone here conducted their transaction through there, is OpenBazaar trustworthy, and isn't OpenBazaar still in beta/possibly buggy?

I got my coins today, thanks and I really dig them. Bhcoins definitely has a cool & unique style of making coins. I like them all but I think my favorite style of the 4 is the antique silver. I got lucky and caught a deal, but even at full price they are def. worth it and still one of the cheapest physical Bitcoins out there. They are a great value for the price for someone to start collecting physical BTC. Looking forward to a Series 5.

Quote from: Minor Miner on April 24, 2015, 06:22:13 PM

Is there a site or a post that explains how the coin works after you receive it?

It is similar to a Casascius physical Bitcoin, where a tamper-evident hologram covers a small printed private key to a BTC wallet. You can store funds on it and keep it intact forever or you can peel the hologram and spend the funds. Bhcoins has already printed and placed a private key within each coin, but it is a DIY coin and comes with extra holos if you want to generate one of your own addresses or peel & spend it a few times.

they aren't copies of coin private key if you mean backup. You can use them with another hologram when you peel off the actual hologram.

I ordered four coins and have four envelopes accordingly. Are all of them filled with Bitcoin address that aren't related to my coins? And if so, why? What's the point?

If that's true, then the resell value = 0. Great. =(

Not necessarily, they're DIY coins and come with extra holograms, correct? So you could generate and place new addresses, or just sell them with the extra holos for the buyer to do that.

Oops got them confused. So many coins. Nothing to see here, move along Grin

Well, I just received my package of bhCoins V4. and I like them, but V3. was a better in my opinion. I really miss the certificate of authenticity that was included in that version. This version has a nice envelop, but what's inside is very plain. It's just a piece of paper with two QR codes, the addresses and the private keys.

EDIT: I just checked and the addresses on the piece of paper matches none of my four coins. Why?

Finally snatching some of the latest series up. I will buy 11 of them at the 0.011 unit price for 0.121 BTC. The quantity price is great and the free shipping is an amazing deal I don't need the 10% returning customer discount. Feel free to ship them the slowest option available as well I trust you and Intl. shipping is expensive.

Would like 3 of Antique golden, 3 Antique silver, and 3 of Mirror silver, and 2 of Mirror golden if possible. Please PM and I will send payment and shipping details. Thanks for a sweet deal.

Is the hologram a sticker or a scratch off label?
Could the private keys be replaced afterwards?

This holograms are tamper evident. If you remove it , it will leave glue and aluminum residue.
Yes you can replace the PK with another printed by you o just use the extra keys and holograms we provide.

Hope that helps.

Please post a picture of the hologram.

No for this time. Of course. Numbers are picked randomly from #500 and upper as we used same hologram as previous series.

I trust bhCoins somewhat, but with DIY coins I also need to trust all the previous owners.

Why? You can remove the existing hologram, generate a new address and use that for your coin. Just slap a new hologram on it and you are done.

In that case, a DIY physical bitcoin is just a holder for a paper wallet. You don't really need the hologram -- any tape will do. I know that is sufficient for many people, but I was hoping for more. That's all.

Do we assemble our own coins? That would affect the resale value. How do we know that any particular coin actually has a private key, or that the original owner no longer has a copy of the private key?

If you want to resell them, either include a hologram so that the buyer can generate a new private key or just don't assemble the coin. Trust is always an issue with physical Bitcoins. How do I know that Max (creator of the Kialara) doesn't have a copy of the private key in my Kialara? I don't. I just trust Max to not fuck me. With DIY coins you can always generate your own keys if you don't trust the manufacturer.

Exactly! It's is full trust between both parties. You can always print your own keys for max security.

But we can assemble the coins for an extra fee and we can provide buyer with a list of coin number/address pairs too.
