Osmiridium Coin Launching New Campaign to Make First 15,000 Limited-Edition, Collectors Coins

These coins made of osmium and iridium are uncounterfietable by the laws of physics.



BEMIDJI, Minn. - July 6, 2017 - (Newswire.com)

Dr. Eric Thorsgard, CEO of Cutting Edge Opportunities (DBA Osmiridium Coin), has launched a one-of-a-kind Indiegogo campaign to raise funds to make and sell the extreme density osmiridium coins, which are uncounterfietable by the laws of physics. The goal of the campaign is to raise $9.7 million. The Indiegogo campaign will release 15,000 limited edition coins that will have a unique, first-ever, numismatic value as well as intrinsic value due to the scarcity of the platinum group metal.

Osmiridium is the name given to a metal that is the combination of the two elements osmium and iridium, which are located side by side on the periodic chart of the elements. Both metals have a theoretical density that is slightly above 22.5g/cc, making them the densest elements in existence. The osmiridium coins will be the first ever precious metal coins that can be traded with absolute confidence between people with no special analytical knowledge. This is history in the making and has never been done before.

Typically, the more gold is worth, the more incentive there is for individual criminals, criminal organizations or rogue governments to make counterfeit gold coins. But with the properties of osmiridium, it cannot be counterfeited or contaminated without changing its size or weight. Dr. Thorsgard believes that that the first possible consequence of producing extreme density osmium coins will be to push the current price of osmium up to the price of iridium, from $400 per ounce to $900 per ounce. The second possible consequence will be that the price of both osmium and iridium will continue to climb.

"My goal is to generate interest in osmiridium as a uniquely safe way to buy and sell precious metals for wealth protection and portfolio diversification," says Dr. Thorsgard. "I want to ensure these uncounterfietable coins exist."

Osmiridium is the BitCoin of Precious Metal tangible assets.

Consumer protection is something that osmiridium coins have in common with electronic currencies. Blockchain technology assures that each Bitcoin or Etherium coin is authentic. Physics assures that each osmiridium coin is pure osmium and/or iridium.

Regardless of who makes osmiridium coins in the future, osmiridium coins will have to be made of pure osmium and/or iridium. Because of the density of osmium and iridium, if an osmiridium bullion coin is contaminated with anything in the universe it will either be too large for its weight or too light for its size.

Unlike gold which cannot be contaminated without a change in size and weight, physics protects individuals from ever getting anything less than pure osmiridium when they buy an osmiridium coin.

Physics does not protect the osmiridium coin company from competition.

The campaign has three main contribution levels — $65, $650 and $6,500. Each level has associated perks. The $650 level provides contributors with one limited-edition 1 Troy oz. osmium coin including a certificate of authenticity and registration of the coin, in addition to a tee-shirt, jewelry scale, and custom made precision sizing slot. The $6,500 level provides two limited-edition 1 Troy oz. osmium coins ($650/coin), plus ten bullion 1 Troy oz. osmium coins ($520/coin), plus a custom tee-shirt, jewelry scale, and custom-made precision sizing slot. The coins come with a certificate of authenticity and registration of the coins.

"The price of Rhodium went from $400/oz. to $10,000/oz. due to speculation," says Dr. Thorsgard. "A company making osmiridium coins ought to stimulate a similar speculation price increase. My intention is for the limited-edition coins to be worth considerably more than the $650 donated per coin by the time campaign contributors receive them."

Iridium has increased from a price of $520 per ounce to $965 per ounce in the last year.
