How will users know the address of each coin?

Also I assume these coins are without face value and operate more like silver wallets?

Each coin comes with a Certificate of Authenticity that will have the public address AND QR code on it and you are correct the First Edition coins do not have a Face Value attached

Just a suggestion:

Having the address somewhere visible on the coin itself will make it much less of a hassle should an owner of a coin loser their COA which has the address associated with it.

As far as I can tell the only distinction is the number on the hologram to help figure out (on your end) should a COA go missing at some point, to determine the coin address.

Just some thoughts.

Noted, problem was to make custom holograms with the "window" all the hologram manufacturers I spoke to wanted $3000 - $5000 just for custom dies which is money I don't have, and If I had each coin number sequentially that would have been another few hundred per coin because each coin would have required its own mould, If you know ways around these two issues I am open to suggestions, thanks

The Veri First coin assembled and ready to go  Grin

Now only have to assemble the other 99 and compose and print the Certificates of Authenticity and they will be ready to ship so lets say about two weeks from now give or take

they will be proof finished, the dies are still being prepped and hardened striking begins Friday, this was just a lead first impression

From the looks of it, the dies are not polished, so the coins won't have a proof finish to them? This would be considered business strike I assume.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Got the First Impression and even did a hologram test everything fits and looks great the dies are currently being hardened and the coins will start getting struck on Friday so we are getting close to completion possibly another 3-4 weeks (excluding shipping times) pics below are of the First Impression (it is lead not silver so don't worry the actual coins will look prettier) and the hologram test







Notice how the hologram self-destructed when removed plus there are other security features as well that I won't mention for obvious reasons

Emailed the Mint last week sorry for not updating here my bad, they said the engravers are running a few days behind schedule so about another week or two before the die is ready and then 3 weeks or so for the actual minting process so looks to be on par for an end of Aug - mid Sep release (but don't forget about shipping times) so everything is still ahead of schedule compared to the initial ship estimate of Oct - Nov

Sounds troublesome to get a physical, need a ticket?
Will get 1 somewhere directly, maybe ebay next time.

Sorry you missed the boat on this one but I will be doing a Second Edition end of this year/beginning of next for 2015 (target is one Edition per year)

oh and the only reason you need a ticket is because I am SOLD OUT but I placed one coin to the side t do this Lotto with, but if somebody sells theirs to you then awesome bro!
