I have all my 2fa .1 coins in slabs from icg where they also went through the extra effort to put the actual 1st bits of the public addresses on the slabs, instead of just the code. I use the 1st bits to verify funding of each and every 2fa coin I have I'll add pictures as examples of what I mean https://imgur.com/a/m7t1pbT
My guess is that Tim lost the private keys somehow. Otherwise, a lot of this saga would have been resolved already.

Gah, I'm still looking for the #50 poster to match my coin.

Amazing collection you have there! I'm still missing some CI coins myself and I doubt I'll be able to afford them soon . I did manage to pick up a Factom coin recently after almost 3 years of searching so I am stoked about that.
Just saying that there has been 0 issues to this point, (same as casascius, lealanas, cryptoimperator, satoris, and btcc to my knowledge) so it's ridiculous for this to get out of hand over the site needing updated for the 2fa issue to be resolved. Until there is proof about the titans being compromised I hate to see people destroying such beautiful collectibles or losing sleep while hodling them.
Sol Noctis had zero issues until one day my Bull coin was swept. As far as anyone knows mine was the only one, but it proved that someone out there still had a copy of the private keys.
Tim needs to keep all the private keys for the 2FA coins, but why wouldn't he also keep the PK ones as well? What if they fell into someone else's hands if Tim is sick / passes away / disappears? What if the 2FA coins have been running on a fractional reserve and there isn't enough Bitcoin to redeem most of them?
Too many questions for my liking so I peeled the PK one I have (with zero issues redeeming it), and I'm glad to have the peace of mind.

I have not received a message about shipping so assume they havent been shipped yet.
The message I received indicated they would ship in September, but that was about a month ago.

@Dkois, I hope you don't mind me jumping on your podium.
I'm in the same boat with Yarr coin #50 missing the associated poster. Has anyone possessed this coin in the past that might help me work out the chain of custody?

Re: Attention: fake Binary Bulls and Sol Noctis Eagles on the markets!
There you can see that the holograms were removed.
My Bull coin was compromised with the hologram intact. Going out on a limb, the manufacturer likely realized all the private keys were compromised and redeemed the coins. Check out the sticky link at the top regarding scam/compromised section for the entire backstory.

Re: [AUCTION] Crypto Imperator 10,000 bits Made in 2014 Limited Mint of 500 Coins
I’m confused at what you’re saying..you have coins where the funds where also swept? No they could not be fakes like those as fakes don’t actually have a hologram/ keys.
No. What I'm saying is, is it possible that his coin could have been a really good fake, with the added hologram of course.
I've been in and out of the physical crypto game since 2013 and own a variety. It would have to be the best fake hologram I've ever seen in my life, or a stolen original. I owned a Binary Eagle (before I peeled it) and the holograms were identical.
I would question the trouble of counterfeiting or duplicating a hologram on a coin that contains 0.001 BTC. If someone had this ability they would make a killing targeting Casascius or someone higher value coins instead. They wouldn't sweep $200 off of a coin and reveal their hand on purpose, which is what occurred.
