Topic: [IDEA]Walter Moore Sketch coin (Read 1714 times)
When I receive the coin back I will post it with the original color drawing done by Walter Moore.
Hockey fans along with all sports fans we are very close to displaying the hockey coins. I believe if you purchased the basketball coin you have first rights to that same number of the hockey coin.
Looking forward to it. If anyone who reserved the basketball and wasn’t bothering to get the hockey coin, let me know as I’ll be glad to grab a second one for a friend.
Anyone had their basketball coin graded? What grade did you all get?

Yes, I got a MS69 from anacs I personally like anacs but, that's just me.

Hello sports fans everywhere
These hockey coins are going to be so very cool when completed. Will Street, certainly one of the great street artists of our time, graciously has allowed his artwork to be depicted on these coins.

Puck yeah!!
Get ready for hockey. Hope you have your basketball
It is always exciting to get in on the first of something new here on the forum. I'm sure these will be coming up for sale any day so keep an eye out. 
Looking to buy several of these Silver Basketballs.
I am excited to get one also. Very nice design, Always liked CI coins specially the times coin.

Still looking forward to this project making it's way to sports minded crypto collectors. So the first of our four coins will be the basketball, followed by hockey, baseball and not sure on the last one, maybe curling. .

If I were you guys I’d do a soccer (or “football” for the rest of the world) coin next. I don’t even like soccer all that much but it’s the most popular global sports game and if you’re looking for these to reach the largest audience possible, soccer is the way to go. Should consider US football too. My 2.
Looking forward to the release of bball!
Soccer is on the list with hockey also.

This is the first sports related bitcoin coin ever so I hope all the basketball fans get a chance to grab one when they hit the market. Good luck
Coin is coming up nicely, here is one of the last tests 
Ding! Looking forward to the release!
Will be coming soon and will be worth the wait.

The coins will be FAN tastic and the first ever sports btc coin. Basketball is my favorite sport so basketball it is . Beautiful final design I hope all will enjoy as this project idea has come a long way since Jan 2019 with huge thanks to CI

Final design for the coin
(Pending the Denomination and Metal content)Minting starts soon
Because one of CIs last coins he put out that were 1 oz silver with a mintage of 100ish where all nicely priced at around 100-130. The one with a mintage of 21, some went for around .20ish btc in 01/2019. Probably averaged 800-1k
Now during a global pandemic I think people's spending is down, but I got no idea.
So if there were 50 of these, at auction I think, would average around 500 a piece with CITM bidding.

How much longer until the release? roughly?
Are you thinking about an auction style for the 15? and the .01 btc price...does that mean you are taking orders now?
Looking forward to seeing these as well!

Sorry, meant to say the coins will be loaded with .01. Details of how the coins will be sold and pricing will be up to cryptoimperator. Going to be a great set
Selling loaded coins in the USA? Good luck with that
Not selling loaded coins in the USA and secondly what makes you think you can get one for 500.00. Opinions are always welcome

How about golf?
Satoshi (Kodaira) did win a Bank sponsored golf event on the 21st hole in 2018. The RBC.
I enjoy playing golf but, will see what CI thinks of the choices

I like it. I like it a lot.
Update:
Due to recent circumstances, I am unable to continue my usual activity so everything is being delayed. Everything will return to normal hopefully in the following weeks/months. I hope you all and your families are alright
Meanwhile I got the draft for this coin.
Let me know what you think about the design

Thank you all for the great feedback on the idea!
Regarding hologram, I am currently designing the new holo for 2020 onwards. As some have suggested making this a series of different sports, I am considering making a totally different one only for this series

All your coins are great works.
Interesting and new idea! Looking forward to it.
edit:
Version 2 - soccer ball Version 3 - baseball Version 4 - eggball(football) Version 5 - hockey puck and stick.

Looks like the idea of a series for various sports suggested by anonymousminer might be a big hit, getting its own hologram and all.
Very cool.

Really excited with all the enthusiasm shown for this project. Can't wait to get one myself .

Can this coin be dark orange just like the real basketball? That will be cool right?.
NO, it's a 0.999 fine silver coin.

I look forward to this and count me in.
Fantastic, looks like we are headed in the right direction. Support has been great. If anyone thinks they might be interested jump on in
I look forward to this and count me in.
This idea is really starting to excite me, especially with maybe a select few being a gold gilt variation.
Hope this project takes off soon! I'm in. Take my bits!

So anything with a basketball is a nice change.
Really like this idea, and favor CI very much. Good pick!

Thanks GP. Crypto B-Balls I hope will be something new and exciting for the collectors here. As crypto finds its way into the sports world I'm sure collectors might want to have the first crypto coin that brought basketball into focus. I also discussed the possibility of a few gold gilt on the ball maybe just a handful that way maybe #1 through #10. Trying to get a feel for interest right now to gauge all this.

I wanted something new to start the decade with and hoping the forum will rally around something a little out of the norm like adding a sport. If this does really well I will discuss with CI the possibility of a series with hockey and a few other sports. For now we need to see the interest level for this coin and how limited this coin will be. Certain particulars will only be able to be answered by CI. I am hoping for a large turnout so we can make this happen
I like CI’s holo don’t get me wrong, but I think not using a special holo for this coin would be a big miss being a design well out of the norm. Example of something - while moving the coin left to right you could show a player dribbling and dunking..obviously utilizing the movements of a hologram. Could do a lot of cool stuff. Just imho.
That does sound pretty cool, that is something CI would have to address. I really don't know the costs of something like that

For crypto collectors the analogy can be that BTCitcoin is like a BTCasketball as it always bounces back. Will it have a holo on the back? If it does I would expect a new holo design, preferably with numbers that are easily visible.
Yes, will have the holo, but not going to change it. This is the first sport to arrive on the crypto coin scene from the very exciting and early on cryptoimperator. These coins will be numbered and very limited.
Can we put a Chicago Bulls logo on there ?!
I'm an Indiana and Denver fan lol

Great idea..
Any feedback on the idea is greatly appreciated!
I believe this sketch is a baseball drawing. It s a nice design. I think if you decide to make coin out of this drawing, the coin has to be elevated up towards the middle so that it will look baseball. It is just an idea.
It’s a basketball - baseball would have stitches and different lines. Cool idea CI and Dolph!
Yep, it's a basketball. Bringing a sport to the crypto world

Hello fellow collectors!
A few days ago dolphriends contacted me offering the possibility of making a coin out of a sketch made by the cartoonist Walter Moore:
We were thinking on a limited edition of 50 coins, made in .999 fine silver with a weight of 1 Troy oz.
