As I told you a few days ago, I ordered some fake gold BTC themed coins from Temu just for the lulz a few days ago.
To be fair, the listing did mention they are just gold plated and not gold. But I doubt they are even that 😂
Each piece was about 2 USD and I got em today after about a week of waiting.
So let's see what that amount of money can buy you on Temu:
Fyi, they both came in their very own plastic case which is a nice plus considering their super cheap price.
Although I tried my best with the photos, they actually look much better from up close.. They also are very shiny and they have some very nice details!
However, they do feel "cheap" on the hand, probably because I am used to 1 oz silver pieces in that diameter size. I didn't weight them but they just felt too...light. And too...thin. Hopefully, I won't get cancer by whatever they are made off 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
All in all, I'd say they looked way better then I expected! Considering the price, imo they are the perfect cheap novelty gift for someone into Blockchain, BTC and stuff.
I am also expecting two more coins to come very soon. One like the ones you just saw (but supposedly silver plated) and one with Doge as the main theme. I'll get back to you when I receive them :)
