perhaps the most retarded idea I've ever had

[Null]

First quote I've gotten:

Dies $600 each ($1200)
Striking fee -$7 per round
Silver- $10 over spot
Shipping $5 usa
Overseas from us. Cost plus $2
Art adjustment fees as needed $0-$125
And I will have to find out if our suppliers still have metal.
Will take roughly 6-12 weeks to complete.
*Die costs and silver costs and fees are due upfront upfront

This is way more than I was expecting tbh. I don't see why he'd be charging $10 over spot for the metal (literally a >33% profit already) and then an additional $7 per strike. At that rate I'd be looking at selling coins over double the spot, and even then at $56, that'd not make as much money as the manufacturer itself for the run. That's a big bummer.

I'd still buy them at $56 but you're right, that is steep. While that price is inflated for just any old commemorative silver coin I'm still cool with it because I'm more interested in getting a cool KF memento that just happens to be silver and to me and that's worth the amount.

As a side thought, I don't know which is more Jewish, trying to mint your own silver coins or deciding not to because it's too pricey.

Puzzle pieces in place of edge lettering?

 

[Arm Pit Cream]

Just mint your own silver coins

Honestly shit like this is way cooler than a t-shirt or hoodie that probably won't fit me once I get it. I'll definitely get one

I'll buy for 57$.
Maybe in the future when the farms is long dead I'll show my kids what that weird silver coin was about.

No, I insist that the edges be ribbed for my pleasure milled.

Try putting the fork down, tubby.

Diamond milled?
You have no moral compass.
I was thinking of diamond cut. I'm a dumb dumb.

Yeah I don't know if I'm willing to shell out the cash for 20 silver coins at $60 a piece. Put me down for five of them, I guess.

 

[Hitman One]

I was a maybe but that is a bit steep. Good idea though, maybe scale it back a bit and see what some Kiwi Challenge Coins would set you back?

This is a fun idea, I'd be in for one or a few depending on cost. Definitely more interesting than another shirt.

I'm not sure we'd be looking at the volumes that you need to make this worthwhile, but I'm keeping an eye on this.

Can you make it show up as something innocuous on the credit card bill, for those of us that may need to conceal our autistic purchases from a significant other?

That's a great idea. I'd buy a challenge coin if null went that direction. They're going to be much cheaper than silver coins and more customizable and distinctive.

Valentines is too soon. Maybe next year. I was dwelling on what to do for too long and now I'm kind of rushing to figure out a first quarter merch run idea. The silver idea struck me today because I was looking at precious metal interest that's surging right now.

Yeah mea culpa on the timing but I'd 100% buy one if you ever make one. I'll buy some silver coins, but I keep seeing people who act like they know a lot talking about how the current silver stuff is a distraction and is going to go right back down. Even if it does I'll still buy a coin.

How thoughtful, I appreciate it. My problem is that things usually run too big on me

 

[KiwiFuzz]

I have challenge coins from the feds. Who makes those? Can they hook your shit up?

 

[Gender of peace]

It's hate speech and it's a store of value. I'm in.

 

[Null]

Challenge coins are very easily doable chinkshit but they're not based and redpilled...

 

[Anonymous Dimwit]

Will the coins be clipped around the edges for historical accuracy?
