Coming Very Soon:
A real 1 ounce gold coin with 1000 bitcoins.
It sounds like I can have it soon, like within this month, and possibly very soon this month. UPDATE 2: most likely before Dec 20.
DIAMETER: 30mm (slightly larger than 1 BTC coin) (hey, gold is heavy)
COST: $200 premium over gold and Bitcoin spot price, plus shipping. This is approximately a $5000 coin. Shipping is via Registered Mail with insurance. I will need 3 business days to fill orders.
I will be accepting either BTC or USD wire transfer for this item.
Thanks to those of you who talked me into this! (Note to self: Holy shit, I can't believe I'm doing this!)
UPDATE: I am willing to do a shared private key scheme for the gold coin, where you generate half the key, and I generate the other half. The hologram will be clearly marked that a second key is required, along with a partial hash of your public key. This completely eliminates the possibility that I would have access to your BTC on your coin once I fund it. I doubt this coin will get redeemed much, and I doubt anyone would buy one second hand without checking Block Explorer =) so I am not concerned about making a check to Block Explorer necessary as I would with smaller coins.
