That hologram issue looks like it moved after initial placement, possibly a minor adjustment by the hologram placer during assembly.

I will have to dig mine up but I do believe mine has small issues with the hologram as well.  I have reached out to ColdCoin AU on instagram to let them know there were people here with questions/issues.  

These look really great but the hologram is an unfortunate issue, curious as to why some have not received their orders yet, and when we should expect our "back-up" coins.  

Chi...They responded to me telling me its stuck in customs...but they must of dug out the wrong order as it was customs in GREECE!  Huh

 Still awaiting a response for the correct tracking number  Tongue

Received my coin, mostly looks great.  I noticed minor defects with the hologram on my coin, and was wondering if anyone else has a similar error with their coin's holo.  I highlighted the defect in the Imgur album.

Looks like it could have been caused when they were applying the hologram. Not sure exactly what method they choose, but if anything touches the underside of the hologram before it is applied, then the tamper effect will kick in. It would be interesting to see if other coins have the same elements on their holograms or if yours is a one off.
I know that Casascius recommend using transfer tape (and used it himself when applying his holos).

That is interesting to learn, I was wondering what had happened there.  If you look closely there are small specs missing in other parts of the holo too.

I noticed that when you look at the images MinerJones posted earlier in this thread - the holo on that coin is at the very bottom, and mine is in a different spot on the back of the coin.  I am guessing all holos are applied by hand.

Good looking coins well done. Hope the first series sells out and you decide to produce a second series in .999 silver.

Hey y'all. Yep they're numbered 1-250. Because of the wallet creation and paraphrase security, it can only be purchased online coldcoinbitcoin.com

Thanks hope you like Smiley please leave a review on the site if you can! <3

These do look pretty cool and the presentation is clean, thanks for sharing the photos MJ.  Smiley

Can orders be placed through the forum and would it be advisable to get the backup coin also?

Still waiting patiently for mine, can't wait.  Those are really nice MJ!  Really great deal they offer.

Edit- what does that #2 mean?  I thought these didn't have serial numbers?

Finally! We will start shipping this week! We are proud to be the only coin on the market with 2FA Security code on our coins, and they look pretty sweet if I do say so myself. I hope you guys love them and you have nice things to say about them, obviously we're up for any feedback you may have.

Thanks again

We did notice 1 user didn’t fill out their paraphrase so we will need to email you a link so you can do so. We think there’s an express checkout user journey that bypassed that page, but not to worry.

We will also send all customers an update newsletter on process of the coins and shipping expectations. To keep you all in the loop here, we’re waiting on a heat transfer material to arrive before we can start printing next week and there’s been a delay on our packaging. So we appreciate your patience and we’ll at least send pics and updates on where everything is at

Hi Guys!

Great to finally be apart of the community and for the support already received.

I’m part of Cold Coin Bitcoin, an Australian company and a small team at that. We’re still in development but over this weekend there will be an update to our site that will go in depth on everything. I’d be happy to answer any questions I can though, but more importantly I genuinely look forward to hearing all your suggestions and input. You guys are the main early adopters of this product and service so we take your opinions very seriously.

We want to try be as transparent as possible, it’s just early days + small team at the moment so we’re building information as we go, and I’m sure your input will help shape what we do.

The Cold Coin GOLD v1
250 made + 250 backup coins.
When you purchase a coin or coins, you will create and save your 2FA paraphrase (we do not store the paraphrase so it’s VERY important you save and make a backup copy). The paraphrase generates the public and private key on our end so we can manufacture your coin/s. We save your public key, but the private key is saved as a backup offline. The coins cannot be used without the private key on your coin/s + the paraphrase you created. So if you loose a coin it would be useless to someone else.

We are working on account dashboard that could potentially show your public key/s when logged in, and a link to view the balance loaded on your coin. All coins are buyer funded.

Hope we can deliver what you guys want and expect : )
 

Welcome to the forum!  The one question at moment I have - I ordered two coins (original + backup) and did not fill out any pass phrase stuff.  I had another member mention they had to in order to place the order.  Could you possibly shed some light on that? Really look forward to seeing you guys grow, this is a really nice first coin for a lot of reasons. Thanks !
