<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Dansco_Dude, post: 26280245, member: 147679&quot;]After a chance to rest up, here is a recap of the feedback I heard from both collectors and dealers from the Colorado Springs Coin Club Show and the ANA Summer Seminar. </p><p><br /></p><p>At the show, I hosted a table showcasing Numi&#039;s latest prototype. At Summer Seminar, I took the Advanced Coin Dealing course with Rob Obert from Gold &amp; Coin Exchange and Seth Chandler from Witter Coin. I even got to demo Numi to the entire class, and both Rob and Seth were impressed and encouraged me to push Numi further.</p><p><br /></p><p>The feedback from everyone was incredible and eye-opening. I&#039;ve heard everything from expanding beyond wheat cents to Mercury dimes and Buffalo Nickels to needing a processing speed of 10,000+ coins per day for larger shops. People were amazed by the analysis cost of just $6 for 10,000 coins. </p><p><br /></p><p>The top request? Physical sorting capability to automatically separate valuable finds from rejected coins. While Numi doesn&#039;t have this feature yet, attendees could see past the current limitations and envision the future Numi promises.</p><p><br /></p><p>The Advanced Coin Dealing course provided me with the most crucial insight for dealers; it&#039;s all about velocity and turnover. I specifically sought out this course because if Numi is going to succeed with dealers, I need to understand how they think and what they value. It&#039;s not enough that Numi unlocks revenue. It has to unlock it fast enough AND profitably enough to justify its time investment.</p><p><br /></p><p>The support went beyond feedback. Multiple coin dealers offered to let me test Numi in their shops once I refine the prototype, giving me exactly the real-world data I need to prove Numi&#039;s value proposition.</p><p>After months of complex engineering, hearing the consistent message of &quot;Yeah, I think you have something here. Keep going&quot; meant everything.</p><p><br /></p><p>The next step is tightening Numi up to the point that I can arrange to visit a few dealers and do a trial run of Numi to gather key some key data. If the data shows that Numi unlocks enough value for dealers that it&#039;s worth their time, then I&#039;ll look at creating a 3D printed prototype.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
