Notes

Deluxe edition with white scratch off ink cover. Cover is made entirely of lottery paper. United States Quarter included.

The first three tracks (A1 to A3) on this vinyl together are exactly the same as the one 11 minute track Killing Time on other formats. It is just split into three tracks 'visually'.

"Wildflowers" is exclusive to the vinyl version and the japanese CD version Nicolas Jaar - Sirens

"No" contains a sample of "Lagrimas" by Sergio Cuevas. Courtesy of Arion Music.

  • cristianlathropp's avatar
    Just considering the Discogs' s alone, the cost of the 0.25 USD coin in it, it's about 1k USD

      Imagine running into Aaron Turner and Nicolas outside a cafe in Brussels, and Aaron scratches the cover of this for you.

        Does anyone store the coin with the record? Or do you keep it separate?

          The vinyl format of this album is mixed differently compared to digital. Some parts are forward & quieter in the recording. Especially you realize when ing from 'Wildflowers' to 'The Governor'. The dynamic range of 'The Governor' is huge compared to digital. I feel lucky to have this on vinyl.

            I have this copy in the PVC cover no issues and I still have the coin; Also I haven't rubbed over the outside bit, tempted now though :)

              Is there a version of the record that comes with A Coin In Nine Hand and America! I'm For The Birds?

                Got mine at local mega-record store. Didn't know it was supposed to include a quarter until I got home and read reviews here. Can see the outline of where the quarter was before someone nabbed it :/

                  This pressing is dead quiet and sounds amazingly good - big soundstage and full dynamic sound overall.
                  I do have a few minor ticks on side A (it seems where the coin has indented through the cover so as to slightly affect the vinyl).

                  So other than that I am well pleased with this purchase both as an album to own and a pressing to own too :)

                    Anyone also considering tossing the PVC cover? Heard some bad stories about PVC ruining vinyl...

                      yall diggers are having some true existential crises. me too. i am letting the coin organically degrade the scratch off cover.
