gravitate...great concept...and very innovative in both the coin design and treasure hunt.
A couple things...
1. The community was badly burned (myself included) on the coinographic fiasco. There will likely be a lot of people averse to doing another big ticket pre-order.
Even before coinographic, it took a while to get 20 people to pre-order for example ognasty's Nastyfans 5 oz silver, though thankfully it was successful. He accepted partial pre-orders of $100 up front.
I fear it may take months to get the 35 pre-orders for a big ticket item again, which makes the buyers wait for a long time with money tied up and worrying if the coin will get made.
2. Though I personally have purchased from you and trust you, may I suggest accepting escrow? Another option is crypto crowdfunding via say startjoin.
3. Any chance not having this coin funded? I cant picture anyone wanting to destroy their coin to get the key inside. Unless the coin can be relatively easily opened and put back together with just a indication of tampering, I don't know how many people will want to do it.
Even if the coin appears tampered with, what stops someone from sending it to ANACS to have it sealed in a holder to hide the fact it was opened?
4. Can you provide any more details about the treasure hunt? For example, how many places / countries you have to visit, to get an idea of the level of effort?
5. The design has a little bit of cryptolator "unchained" in it. Crumbling banks, people, coins, chains. I like it.
Good luck with the effort. I for one will be ordering a coin.
