Some cool Carr Knights of the Coin table NEWPS
Scooped these up from Ilini420 Saturday at Long Beach. 2016 Edition in polish and satin silver, brass and copper.
So much fun

Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

Hopefully Mike or Dan will come around and add or correct anything stated above.

What has been reported about them so far is accurate.
Past mintages for all the 2007-2016 Knights of the Coin Table medals are listed here (grouped together, towards the bottom of the page): moonlightmint.com/dc-coin_medals_club_list.htm .They are quite difficult to photograph well. Here is my photo of a color-toned silver medal. The lighter streaks are actually holographic lightning bolts:
Mike Kittle's video shows it best (on the antiqued silver version), I think:

Man, these are pretty cool. This one will be in my hands by Tuesday, it's the 39mm Silver Satin. Only 35 made, here it be.

I too grabbed a couple from mikes table mate Jay. A polished silver and of course a Morgan overstrike
I also stopped just shy of begging for an antiqued version but I highly doubt any of those will ever change hands!

I'm guessing an animated GIF would be pretty cool.

Knights of the Coin Table was always a very small group and release , so I'm wondering how Mike was able to acquire so many types and variations.
If it's simply a matter of joining the KOTCT online and paying a membership fee then I would love to know how for future years preorders.All of my KOTCT issues I had to get on the secondary market (eBay) as Dan never sold these direct, so you would have to be a member of the club .
Same with Hobos and all of the various clubs . If your not a member and get in a preorder then you can only hope to get them through the Treasurer or members that bought extras .Very cool design this year and last for sure

From what I've heard membership is by invitation only

Ohhh Thanks for the info ..
it must be some elitist club where they sip brandy, smoke the finest Cuban cigars while discussing their purchases for the year . Lol1 -
CC, maybe we should start a Knights of The Carr Club and make it also by invitation only .
I'm sure we could gather many founding members just from these three current D.C. threads alone1 -
The Club of Carr! And members will be known as the "Carr Boys" lol. I'm in!
...Carr Boys is a name a hater on another forum started calling us supporters who took issue to the haters moniker that I've taken and embraced similar to the "deplorables" thing in politics.

Yeah I'm well aware of that forum and the continuous unnecessary comments that are made towards us Carr Boys and Dan's work .
Maybe we should really think this one out as Dan may like the idea0 -
I am a member of the KOTCT. It's a cool club. Also, there is no membership fee, but you can donate to help fund the costs of maintaining the website. They are a great group of folks (mostly from Australia, but world-wide, really).

Mike Kittle is a member of KotCT and he placed his order like all the other members (and then had to wait quite a while until I finally finished them). There were no limits on how many an individual member could order. Members were given quite a few different choices on what they wanted to order: silver/copper/brass; proof-like/satin/antiqued; un-toned/color-toned; selective plating; over-strike on large dollar coin. There were 27 different possible combinations. Some combinations had zero orders (so none of those were made).
As for becoming a member of KTotCT, I'm not sure how that works or if an invitation is necessary.

I didn't realize that I could have joined that club years ago had I known it was that easy .
So then it's not by invitation only ??0 -

Sorry for going OT. Not Dan Carr related, but it is KOTCT related. The club had these cool notgeld notes printed too. These three are available if anyone is interested. Just shoot me a pm for details.

Just to clarify, I didn't really end up with that many types and variations of these 2016 KOTCT medals. As a KOTCT member, I was invited to place an order for medals this year. There were a total of 27 different types of medals produced for 2016 (according to the mintage stats kept by Dan), copper, brass, silver, overstrikes, plated, toned, antiqued, etc. I think I only ordered 9 of those types and only ordered duplicates of some.
When we placed our orders and paid for these, we only had a sketch of the design provided and really didn't know exactly how the final product would look. The hologram effect on these medals was added by Dan and was an idea he came up with after we all ordered and was a pleasant surprise to us. They ended up much better looking than I thought and if I knew exactly how cool they would turn out, I would have easily ordered double or triple what I had ordered

I agree with Illini, if I had just seen a sketch of the coin I wouldn't have been that interested and even after seeing a picture of one I was like eh, it's ok I guess but after the video of one I thought they were very cool and luckily I found one on eBay, should be here any day and I can't wait to see it in hand. I'm coming to appreciate dans complete works and not just the mainstream popular overstrikes. Keep up the good work Dan.
A side question I'm curious about, does Dan charge the club a design or production fee or just makes his money off the sales to members?

There are set up and design fees depending on many factors .

Cool, thank you for the link!

Zombie Thread Resurrection of the Decade!
As a relatively new KOTCT "knight" I have found that I have much to learn . . . . .
I just today received a gift from an "esteemed Knight" of the following. I did not know they existed before. I wasn't around in 2013 or 2015 when these were engraved by the Wizard of KOTCT Banknotes. I am really excited to have found these, and been gifted the latter. I am not sure the benefactor of these banknotes is even a member of this site, but here is where my research led me.
There seems to have been a falling away of the Knights earlier this year. I cannot comment on that one way or the other, but I feel the uni-space is a lesser place for it.
Are there any Knights left standing?

I joined KotCT late, but have acquired a few of the 2016 Merlins. I would like to snag some of the script as well.
