Title: [Interest Check] BitBills 1 BTC
Post by: Josh on January 10, 2017, 04:42:41 PM
Created a new topic for the Auction.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1747782 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1747782)


The BitBill was funded on 2011-05-25 and remains intact.

This might be old info, but here's what I know about the numbers.

how rare BitBills are:
20BTC: 181 (132 intact)
10BTC: 143 (97 intact)
5BTC: 144 (107 intact)
1BTC: 589 (492 intact)

As you can see, there are imperfections. In fact, no 2 are alike, each being handmade. Hologram placement, the laminating process, private key slip placement, each one is definitely unique in several ways. I am the original owner, and have not handled or circulated the BitBill since I opened the package on or about June 20, 2011.

It is funded, and intact. I have never opened a BitBill, but I understand that they can be redeemed. https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Bitbills

Here is a link o the images of the card.

Edited: I always like the idea of these. I would love to see a pic if you do put it up for sale. Do you know if it is possible to still redeem one of these? Good luck with your sale.

Hi, I have an old and still intact BitBill that I might be willing to sell, just checking on the interest levels. I see them mentioned from time to time, but there aren't many in the wild.

This might be old info, but here's what I know about the numbers.

how rare BitBills are:
20BTC: 181 (132 intact)
10BTC: 143 (97 intact)
5BTC: 144 (107 intact)
1BTC: 589 (492 intact)

The BitBill was funded on 2011-05-25 and remains intact. I'm not going to provide pictures or address until I decide to sell, depending on interest.

I'd say there is plenty of interest.  I would participate in an auction.

Hi everyone, thanks for all the replies. Seems like there is good interest. Here's the pics, and address info.

Was looking at some old emails and found the transaction for when I bought this and a few other BitBills, paid 2.4 BTC for shipping... seems like a lot now.

Anyhow, I'll consider the auction format, and would definitely escrow with someone trusted like Blazed or MJ. I need to think about what price I'd like to get for this for a couple days.

As you can see, there are imperfections. In fact, no 2 are alike, each being handmade. Hologram placement, the laminating process, private key slip placement, each one is definitely unique in several ways.

Will definately be looking for the auction to come out.  Very interested to see what the current market values this at.

I have a pretty good idea seeing as I just sold off a 10BTC BitBill. I am curious if the lower face value drives the premiums up more, though. This single is probably in a lot more peoples budgets.
