Title: Custom Real Silver Boba Fett 30th Ann. Coin Interest?
Post by: bubbavader on February 01, 2017, 07:10:19 PM
I really enjoy carrying a silver pocket piece on my person, I think it brings good fortune (similar to how Chinese view carrying jade).  Boba Fett is also something I really enjoy.  The groovy Boba Fett Animation Debut 30th Anniversay coin is something I own and would like to rock, but it is some sort of janky metal.  I'd love to have it in silver.

Over here in Parts Unknown, I have a long term relationship with a skilled Goldsmith.  He can make a fairly good replica (maybe great) of the Fett coin, and I am considering it.  There is a mold fee, silver cost, and labor.  In addition, the mold could be reused, and I think more could be available for $50 or less (I am not sure how much silver it would use, it should be less than a troy oz, so the price could be a bit less than $50). 

Here is the front of the coin, the back has the skull:

(I have a coin MOC if I will do this) Anyone interested in picking one up?

Pretty cool idea. If it were my favorite character AT-AT Driver I would bite in a second. This has me thinking though.
