Title: Bitcoin Token Coins, where can I buy some?
Post by: 4mherewego on July 03, 2013, 09:12:50 AM
I want to own some fake bitcoins. Just so you can show people when you explain the concept of bitcoins. Preferably some nice and shiny ones but not too expensive. Like these but without the value:

Where can I buy some?

You can get 'empty' physical bitcoins from casascius (the ones from your picture are from casascius as well).

You can order them on his website: https://www.casascius.com/ (https://www.casascius.com/). Look for the 'Aluminum "Strength in Numbers" Promo Coin (bag of about 500)'.

Shameless self promotion: When you want to print your own labels, see this (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=232875.msg2602558#msg2602558) fork of BitAddress.org which let's you print labels for the coins on a sticker sheet.

This is what I am looking for :)

But a bit on the expensive side, BTC2.55 for them is a bit more than I had hope to pay for this. Some group buy anywhere or some ebay seller so I can buy 10 instead of 500?

Not that I know of. I haven't seen them auctioned/sold on ebay or on this board.

I don't think there are any group buys because the price is not high enough.
