I am giving 6 Cryptolator Unchained Series copper physical Bitcoins to close family members for Christmas. I am going to fund them, and type up a brief history of Casascius and physical Bitcoins, the meaning behind the coin design and security features (hologram), as well as explaining how the coin actually holds BTC and how to spend it if they so ever choose. I got a great deal on 10 of them in an auction and am really excited that I'll finally be able to give them their first BTC in the form of a beautiful coin with a symbolic design. Also going to fund 1 each for my 4 year old daughter, and baby boy on the way due in April! Will be holding onto those 2 for safe keeping for a few years, but it would be nice if 0.10 BTC was worth a college education in 14 years!
Here are some pictures of the Cryptolator coin for those unfamiliar:

Nice coin there! How does one go about trying to buy these Cryptolator coins? Seems like the website is down.
ChuckBuck,
I also noticed their website is down until 2015. If you want to buy one, I have 1 extra I would sell to you for 0.075
BTC Priority 2 Day shipped (To the US- if international we could figure something out). According to my Blockchain app, that is currently around $24, which is cheaper than buying it off of their website with shipping. I will also include the COA and the presentation box, which also cost extra on their official site when up. The coin is in Like New condition and comes in an airtight coin capsule. I don't know if you own any physical Bitcoins or not- but one of these would be a great start to a collection and probably get you hooked.
Cryptolator did a great job on these and the copper color looks amazing with the gold colored hologram. The coins contain a private key direct from the maker and this one will come unfunded- and can be funded anytime.
For those wanting to know the full meaning behind the design on the "Unchained" Series, here it is in:
"Cool "Unchained" series design where the artist depicts breaking free from the "chains that bind us" to the banks. in front of the bank, there is a Pig and a Dog and the people running from the bank are considered as the sheep that are freeing themselves (This is a reference to the Pink Floyd album, Animals). The second thing is the crying eye at the top of the bank front, this is the illuminati eye that is now closed and crying... the sad "pig" bankers who have lost from the liberating peer to peer money system that is bitcoin. "
Also I am in no hurry to sell this- I was going to hold onto it or trade for other physical Bitcoins, but I will sell it to ChuckBuck if he wants it. Since I've already typed all of this out though- if ChuckBuck says he doesn't want it, I will still sell it first come first served. He gets first Dibs though because he asked about purchasing first. If you read this ChuckBuck, send me a PM if interested or post a "No" letting others know it is still available. I can ship it tomorrow if you pay tonight.
