Lets all have a minute silence for Coin #3 that was sacrificed.
Indeed... to my everlasting shame... "Dustin, why did use a coin below #10 for the demo?!"
In my mind at the time it was just as good as any other hologram... oops.
Ordered mine on the 27th, just showed up, very well packed. Probably the best packing I've seen!
Coin looks awesome too. Glad I bought one!

I'm glad you like your coin!
We are very paranoid about the certificates making it to destination... unspoiled. We also started placing the coins in fit-to-hold holes, so the coins are even more stable while being shipped. Last thing we want is stuff rattling in a box that says "coins" on it...
I can't wait till you guys see our t-shirts

On your web site, the redeeming page, it looks like a gold coin. Are these available?
We currently only offer .999 fine silver coins.
What you are seeing is a trick of light. I'll try to retake that photo. It's difficult taking pictures of these coins without appearing in their reflection..

Hi everyone,
We have updated our verify page to include the status of individual coins.
So you can see for yourself if a coin has been shipped:
https://recalescencecoins.com/verify.php?serial=00001
Or if a coin was damaged or otherwise unavailble:
https://recalescencecoins.com/verify.php?serial=00020
We'll be refining this feature as the week goes on. Currently coins that have no status are technically available, pending proper hologram placement.
Keep in mind that the verify page is not tied to our order book and simply updated from time to time. Orders placed while the verify page states a coin is pending is no garantee you will get that particular coin.
Cheers,
Dustin

you should put them up for sale on coingig.com also, see if you can get more buyers and spread the word
I think that would be a good avenue for people who would want to resell the coins.
I like the looks of your coins, and I think denominating it in 1000 mBTC instead of 1 BTC is a great touch.
Thanks! I was actually worried how that would be received...
Ordered 1 coin. Might order more when you come back with your postage costs.
I presume this will be automatic when you add a UK option but i had to make up a zip code as a UK postal code wasn't valid. I put it after the State.
Look forward to receiving it.

No problem. International shipping is horrible and messy right now. Its not going to be this way for long.

There doesn't seem to be an option for postage to the UK. 
Also, would you do a discount for large orders?

We are currently not offering bulk discounts. While we are not limiting bulk orders, I do not wish to encourage them either.
Contact us via our contact page and we can set you up with an international order. The UK is actually our next priority as far as broadening shipping options.
Websites not loading for me. 
Hmmm... How about now?
Works fine now.

Sorry, Bitcoin only.
Could have worded better. I would buy with bitcoin and resell for PayPal/credit cards. Sold over 100 cascius coins this way in the past. Just throwing it out there to see if there is interest before I order any of these to resell
I see. Reselling was one of the things I had in mind when I decided to serialize them in the order of their purchase. So even if you were to claim the coin immediately after purchase, you still have proof on the peeled hologram and on the certificate that it was the #"xxxxx" coin.
The way the coin was designed actually makes it quite easy to put your own sticker design and private key on the back of them, which is why I opted to not have the denomination on the physical coin itself. I should include the diminsions on the back of the coin in the redeeming page of the website...
Reselling the coin as is without sweeping the private key is still risky to customers. At DEFCON casascius's coins were successfuly removed with solvents, the private key recorded, and placed back on the coin. Our private key however, is very suceptible to solvents. Their use in defeating the tamper evident hologram runs a real risk of destroying the key. Granted, I'm sure a dedicated individual could defeat my design like they did casascius's.
