another option?

ingredients:
  • pen/pencil for writing: 1
  • paper to write on: as much as rquired
  • 16-sided hexadecimal dice: 1
  • an even ground to roll the dice 64 times: as big as possible!

congratulations you now own a private key. not to get your bitcoin address you need:
  • some tool to convert the hexadecimal result to a bitcoin address.
  • a DVD with live linux to run that tool

now you are only trusting ECDSA and hashes to be safe. Grin

There are no 16-faced Platonic solids.  The only games in town are: tetra-hedron, cube, decahedron, do-decahedron, and icosahedron, which have four, six, ten, twelve, and twenty-sides respectively.

You may have other shapes with exactly 16-faces but it will mean there will be a bias to some outcomes more than others.  You could use a 20-sided die and mark four of them as "re-roll".
