Title: Casascius coin address not showing up on blockchain?
Post by: alabamafan1 on March 15, 2014, 02:25:32 AM
Had a casascius silver coin and opened it when BTC spiked to $1100 couple months back. Trying to send some funds to the coin but now cannot seem to find the address. When I type in the first bits on blockchain.info it says firstbits not found. I know the first bits I've typed in are correct, my vision is perfect.

Here is the firstbits which are public on the back of the coin: 1Ag1qstB.

If anyone can find my address for this coin I would much appreciate it.

Blockchain's firstbits tool appears to be broken for quite some time now.

He already spent it a while ago:

He just wants to find the address because he wants to refill it perhaps? I personally don't think thats a good idea because the resell value is now gone anyway.
