Glad I beat you to it I needed a "project" here on the forums
That's great, thanks for the order.

I think they are the same size as the brass coins, so technically you could use the standard hologram. I will try to obtain a few holograms.
However, I'm not sure it's worth it for the small denominations these are aimed at - I'm planning to put private key in QR code on the reverse as pictured in OP.

Awesome. I was literally going to do this next week. I'll take 200 if you don't mind. I'm UK based.

I'll pay next Wednesday or Thursday if that's alright with you. I just have a pretty busy week coming up.

Also if this is really popular I don't want to be taking any away from anyone else so I'd settle for 100. 50 if I was really pushed but then I might just buy a bag for myself.

These are nice, any chance you could use the hologram stickers or similar?

I would buy 20 or so to hand out to friends and family to get them into bitcoin.

Specifications:

The coins are 1.25" (31.75mm) in diameter, quite thin at 0.06" (1.5mm) and very light.

They are quite shiny with a good mirror finish on the obverse. Not all are perfect (some have slight scratches and imperfections around the edges) however as promotional tokens they are great, especially at the price!

More pictures of the actual coins I received:

UPDATE: All coins now sold out, thanks everybody!

UPDATE: Coins now in stock, see photo below! Specifications and more photos in the second post below.

Hi, I decided to order the following new aluminium Casascius coins (ignore the gold-coloured one): https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/aluminum-casascius-coins-at-the-bitcoin-foundation-conference-204662

They do not have any denomination, say They say "Strenght in Numbers" on the obverse and have plain reverse.

I ordered two bags (~1000 coins) at 3.7BTC including FedEx shipping to the UK. I'm not sure what the lead time is - I would expect about a couple of weeks. I will post an update when I know more.
I'm not looking to turn in profit, merely make these more accessible in EU and build some rep here on the forums

If you're interested please send a payment of (number of lots of 10 coins) * 0.04BTC + shipping to the above address.

Then post here with the following info:

I will try to make some QR stickers to stick on the reverse to be able to load them with small amounts (like 0.01BTC) for promotional purposes - tip or handouts - like this guy did:

Update (20 June):

I was waiting for a shipping confirmation from Casascius so I was quite surprised to receive a fairly heavy USPS box this morning



Better pictures coming this evening.
