Elianite and m_ribbon, will you share any screenshots of he book once it comes together? Will this be hardback or softback? What are the dimensions of the book? I'm glad to see the list of reserved spots is growing...I might be a buyer soon (need to save up some 'coin!)

Good luck and congrats!

Hi, these questions may have been missed or maybe they've already been answered. Can you give me some insights or direct me to where they answers may be located?

Thanks and good luck!

To answer your questions;

- The book will be soft-back
- The dimensions are expected to be about 9" by 6"
- Naturally, it will be printed in color

Below, are some of the Lealana pages that are mostly complete.

Elias, I'm sure people would be interested to know roughly how many manufacturers you are writing about. From the spreadsheet you sent me, it looks like an impressive and substantial number.

I've just received twelve pages from Elias about Lealana. Three pages of detailed information about the company and its coins followed by nine pages about nine coins. There are photographs of the front and back of each coin. There is a table which depicts the mintage of different styles of each coin, the material, weight, and grade (if any). Each page provides data about the coin and reveals any unusual or intriguing features such as the lack of a "pit" for some of the 10 LTC silver coins (2013).

It's impressive work. I'll be reading it tonight and letting Elias know my thoughts.

All I can see here is a group of people with green trust scores. Do you have any offer for the one who wishes to buy more than one ?

The answer to your question is quoted below, it's the second post in this topic...

A 10% discount will be applied if you order more then one book due to shipping savings.

Thanks Possum Smiley

And if you want to order a bunch; PM me and we can work something out.

Hi. A few months ago, you asked me to send you a physical coin for your new book. Could you please send me a copy (pdf,jpg) of the page that illustrates the coin? Thanks.

I have sent you a PM, that may give you a few leads for Jinn and Antaui.

You may have already tried them, but they are worth a shot

Originally, my plan was to designate 1 page for EVERY coin ever made. Thats not really practical, and would cause most pages to be quite empty due to little info available. Take Antana Coins http://antanacoins.com/ ; would you want one full color page for each of them? Very innovative coins, but I simply don't have 10+ pages of material to write about them. Such a 'database' would be more appropriate in a web format; which is in the plans for my website www.coinfirm.org sometime in the future.


One of the issues is that producers just disappear. For example, what happened to Antaui and Jinn Bitcoin? In both cases, the domains no longer work.

The crowd funding period is over, where is this going to be for sale? Is there still going to be a physical copy available? If so, what's the price?

Physical copies will be produced; up to 100 (likely much less). You can pre-order by sending me a PM and I will provide payment info. these books will likely not be for sale after printing, but it is possible an ebook will be availible on amazon, etc at some time much later. A book costs 70 £ which includes shipping to NA & EU.

An issue that needs addressing is photos. What photos can be used, and what if the owners of photos aren't responsive or cooperative? I obviously I don't want to get sued for using the wrong photos, though I want to provide the best available photos of every coin. with so many coins, defunct mints, and many available photos, its quite the logistical exercise.


Obviously, every photo that Elias and I did not take will be acknowledged with the person's real name or forum name (as they desire).

For example:

Alan Archer (p.24, p.56), Bob Black (p.12, p.121 top, p.122 left), "charlie999" (p.78, p.99 left, p.187, p.199)... and so on.

And then:

We were unable to contact the owners of the following photographs. If you own the copyright, please contact us and we will update the acknowledgements in the next edition.

p.32, p.66 left and right, p.100 top...and so on.
