Wow these came out better than I expected! Just grabbed them from Fedex. Will be shipping orders tomorrow. Sorry for the delay. I'll update pics here later (currently on my phone) but here is a tweet of the pic https://twitter.com/silverwallets/status/499679916817154049

You still haven't given me one for helping catch the typo in the forumla!

J/K, I know that's a pipe dream.  Nevertheless the front looks good.   What about a pic of the back?

Lol that would be one expensive typo!

The back is the same as the original design. No gold plating.

Even more expensive though if I hadn't caught it for you before you went to the mint!  EDIT: I don't deserve the one with the gold plating, even I couldn't ask that much.  lol

Anyway, but a pic is always nicer than the drawing.

EDIT again: oh, nvmd, I'm dumb.  I just put it together that the back is the spot for the hologram sticker, not the design with the Sum....

WE WILL ONLY DO A RUN OF 100 OF THESE COINS EVER. THEY WILL ALL BE NUMBERED. 1, 2, and 3 belong to us the owners of the company. Coins 4-100 are now available for order and will ship AUGUST 4, 2014

This is absolutely a first come first serve run. If you claim a number, you have 24 hours to make payment or we will release your hold.

One business day delay?  That's just unacceptable in Bitcoin.  Ha!   Way better than Two weeks.   Just kidding.
Thanks for the update.

these coins still shipping out soon?

Hey guys the Mint had a slight delay. They are shipping them to us via three day shipping and will go out today or Monday. We will have them on Wed/Thursday next week and I will be shipping them prior to heading to the Raleigh conference. I'll shoot everyone their tracking info as soon as I get them in the mail.

I would be interested in a Gold wallet (NOT PLATING).
Serial #11

My guess is you would be far cheaper than Titan since you don't include the 1BTC in private key/printing, etc.   Smiley

If you do a 1/2oz coin, I would be interested in that as well.

Like your idea on the 1 oz gold wallet, maybe even a short run of these unless you get your usual tsunami of orders Smiley


We were thinking of doing a short run, the cost over spot is absurd though. To make it even worth while we would have to do at least 50.

I believe Titan BTC is charging about $450 over spot for their gold coin.  I would have loved to get one of those gold coins, but with the cost of 1 oz of gold at around $1300, and the markup of $450, plus the funded BTC, the cost became too rich for me.  Hoping you can do something to make the cost of your coin more affordable. 

I don't think it will be very 'affordable' any time soon. In order to take premiums down, there needs to be a very large number minted. This means a huge investment of capital (imagine buying 500oz of gold to mint 500 coins...which you will need to keep reasonable premiums). Only when the market exists for 500 1oz gold coins to sell fairly quickly, will they be very well priced. I believe the day will come, but not yet.

Actually the stamp fee plus spot price for individual coins is absurd, at 10 coins stamp fee goes down and at 50 coins it goes down again. Titans price of $450 over spot on 1oz gold is pretty spot on when you consider the stamp fee. We would be similarly priced if not slightly less. Trust me it's not us, it's the mint. As I said though to get it even that low would have to be an order of 50.
