Post by: flora_digitalis on August 27, 2016, 12:05:27 PM
I see most people here are only interested in (in my opinion extremely overpriced) Bitcoin collector tokens, but maybe there are a also few old school numismatists, who will appreciate this offer:

12 1/2 Centimos Republica de Venezuela 1958

Historical Background
Unusual denomination coin from the period before the so-called "Bolivarian Revolution" after Hugo Chávez was elected president in 1998. One of the rarest specimen minted for general circulation in this period (10.000.000 ex.). Minted at a time when even subdivisions of a Bolívar had meaningful buying power...

Just out of curiosity, which bitcoin collector coins do you think are overpriced?

Most. Privately issued tokens only rarely keep their value longer term. The individual "rarity" of single tokens does not matter much, because the total number of motives and types is inflationary without clear categorization.

In my opinion, only the very first Casacius tokens will have lasting value.

The irony is you come to a crypto currency related forum and decide to try pushing your generic historical coins because you think people will be interested in them - while at the same time having a not so subtle jab at your competitors.

The irony only exists in your mind, because you construct your own reality that has nothing to do with my real intention. I'm free to voice my opinion in my own thread (side note: I did not visit other threads to do that). My assessment is based on my experience as a seasoned coin collector. You can still buy all the tokens you want - I don't have any problem with that.

I don't view the crypto tokens as competitors. It's a different collecting field. It's just my opinion that most of them are overpriced and will depreciate in value (please note that I also differentiated a bit more here, stating that this is not true for the first Casacius tokens).
