Set composition
A complete matching-number set contains ten coins: the two plain finishes plus rainbow designs A, B, C, and D in both metals. Maximum complete-set mintage: 25.
Every advertised coin type
The seller’s list names ten types: plain brass and nickel-plated brass, plus rainbow designs A–D in both metals. A collector later photographed a complete matching set containing all ten.
How these labels were reconstructed
The collector did not caption each grid position. The left column is nickel-plated brass and the right column is brass; the rows visually match the maker’s named examples as D, C, B, A, then plain from top to bottom. Each card below is now a separate coin image; select one to enlarge only that coin. The uncropped complete-set photograph remains in the recovered gallery. See reply #78.

Archival notes
- The edited first post no longer preserves the roll prices, but seller reply #28 preserves the complete 10-coin set price of 0.028 BTC.
- The maker identified the four rainbow treatments as Tribal, colored-B/tribal, border-colored BTC tribal, and binary/BTC symbols.
- Collector reply #78 includes the complete matching set in two columns. The type guide maps that photograph by visual comparison with the maker’s named reference images; the original collector post did not caption each grid position.
