Title: Buying Cass coins with history Post by: BTCcollector19 on October 12, 2018, 09:31:23 PM Hi,
I'm looking to buy some Casascius coins that have documented history. Does anyone have any advice on how to find these? I'm concerned about forgeries, especially after hyperbitcoinization :) Thanks in advance for any advice. -HODLer ps - really fun being back on bitcointalk. last time I was here was 2013, to-the-moon-guy was posting frequently and someone was organizing a big party for when BTC hit $1k :) Title: Re: Buying Cass coins with history Post by: Lesbian Cow on October 12, 2018, 09:46:10 PM Hi, I'm looking to buy some Casascius coins that have documented history.

Welcome back either way. Best suggestion I can give you is to buy from reputable sellers and use escrow. In that regard, pretty much the same as back in 2013 though the values in USD are higher.

All the coins I have for sale have a known history, and in some cases documented.

I heard from a source on Twitter that minerjones is solid for escrow. Seems to be a preference from the posts I've been reading.

Title: Re: Buying Cass coins with history Post by: BTCcollector19 on October 15, 2018, 03:02:07 PM Minerjones - I'm not necessarily looking for celebrity history. I'm more looking for the best-practices to figure out if the Cass coin is authentic.
Sounds like pgp documentation, chain of custody may be it. I understand that many of these were purchased anonymously and thus documentation can be hard to come by... I want loaded coins, nothing peeled. Thanks Are you looking for more "celebrity" documented history, like one owned by Charlie Shrem or someone similar? or Are you looking for something like what wheelz said, a coin that comes with pgp documentation, chain of custody, etc?

I've been trying to respond to everyone who replied so helpfully, but the Forum is limiting me to one reply per 5+ minutes and is super buggy... argh... Hi.
