It would be really interesting to know how many of these were made, and if there are any that are still unredeemed

thats the same imagery used when you print bitaddress.org paper wallets. some very slight differences but wonder which came first.

I don't think these were the ones he sold. This page (https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Paper_wallet) has this image titled as "Casascius holding early paper wallets".

I found a pdf that supposedly is a sample of the Casascius Paper Wallets. This is what it looks like:

Nice detective work. Looks like Mike Caldwell first put them up for sale on June 24, 2011 while www.bitaddress.org was not registered until Sept 4, 2011.

I’ve seen a picture of one of his paper wallets, and it didn’t look like those yellow wallets that do indeed look like the ones you get on bitaddress. (Not to say he didn’t make and release different types)

I find this comment on that original thread to be hilarious:

Little did the commenter know that as he was thinking this, Mike was building what would become one of the most sought-after collectibles in the entire Bitcoin community.

Funny how some things happen.

Yes, the keyword is "unredeemed", one could imagine that in 2011 most owners would have loaded the addies with thousands of BTC, its hard to imagine that they where not unloaded during some of the great bullruns (20 USD, 250 USD, 1200 USD, 19k USD).

    Just getting a redeemed or one that was never loaded would be nice. Still looking and on the prowl here  ;)

These fine pieces should also be archived in the unique and rare crypto collectibles thread
