I received my coins in the mail yesterday and just wanted to say that they are indeed beautiful pieces.

More a work of art than a coin or simple cold storage. Outstanding job Max!

First, I want to say thanks again to everyone who has already ordered one of these from me. You’re the reason I get to be an artist for a living.





Secondly, I wanted to share that I have raised $1,150.00 that will be used to support projects that benefit the bitcoin community. And I've raised an additional $4,750 that will be used for the construction of new HAVEN bee hives to be installed next Spring.



HAVEN is a living sculpture and nationwide bee sanctuary, specifically created to house colonies of wild honeybees. Incorporating an entirely new kind of beehive design, the network is designed solely for the wellbeing and benefit of the bees, not for the harvesting of their products. The development of Haven was supported by a Rocket Grant from the Warhol Foundation through the Charlotte Street Foundation. Read more here:http://deepecologyproject.com.

In the course of two months, I have shipped 400 Kialara coins which I have spent close to 300 hours assembling. And I have 100 more in production now.  

Coin #01/2500 is currently on eBay, and the auction is scheduled to end this Thursday. http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-COIN-1-2014-Kialara-Physical-Bit-coin-Unfunded-Ships-Oct-31st-NR-/161460776401?pt=US_World_Coins&hash=item2597cfedd1

This is my first post to bitcointalk. If you are interested in learning more: http://imgur.com/a/BN6M4

And the original reddit thread: http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/2e32dg/as_an_artist_and_collector_of_casascius_coins_i/

Kialara coins can be purchased on my website: http://www.maxfield.me/blog/

Look for updates here in the weeks and months to come, including photos of the HAVEN installations and info on the appropriation of all funds raised.

Thanks everyone!

Max-
