Title: [Question] Where to find holograms for aluminum Casascius coins?
Post by: Haliburton on June 03, 2021, 09:12:36 PM
Bought some aluminum Casascius Bitcoins on eBay, but they came without the hologram sticker.

Does anyone know where I could find additional hologram stickers to load my coins with Bitcoin? Can't seem to find 'em anywhere on eBay, Amazon, or even crypto stores like Coins of Nakamoto or PhysiBit.

Your help will be highly appreciated. Thanks y'all!  :)

I looked around and found one on "RealCrypto (https://realcrypto.org/product/cold-storage-hologram/)" and also a few on Alibaba.
Note: I prefer to no vouch for both of the above platforms [DYOR].

You'll probably get better answers if you move this thread to the "Collectibles (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=217.0)" board instead.
- Move button is in the bottom left corner of the page.

Not what I'm looking for. But thanks anyways. I will move this thread to the Collectibles section with the hopes of getting a better solution to my problem.  :)

You can contact @minerjones for inquiry for this item. AFAIK, There is no legit hologram available in the market since the creator already stop the production. All you can possibly is just an imitation or in rare case, Some of the DIY cas that still not being use. Your best chance is to print your own cas DIY holo. I believe someone knows it like @ognasty who's creating there own hologram for there own minted coin.

Hey,

Mike (Casascius) sold them without holograms, leaving room for your own creativity:

Quote
1.25 inches in diameter, blank back, does not include any bitcoins. Print your own sticker for the back and use it as a business card, or print your own private key sticker and put bitcoins on it.

I made a thread a while ago about original Casascius pricing/desciptions: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5292551.0

Mike gave me a bunch of the aluminum blanks and made my own coins a long time ago. No tamper evident stickers though.

Yeah wierd I would think he would have taken them down if he wasn't going to still be selling them. 

OP just go on ebay and find stickers that you like.  You won't be getting any casascius holograms to apply on them.

I did try when I first started collecting years back. Sent bitcoins to the address and everything but never received anything nor any sort of notification. He should have taken that down years ago.

Had I held on to that btc I’d have $14,000 today instead of empty hands. God damn.

I'm fairly sure that if you contact him you should recover your coins, might be a bit hard to get ahold of, idk. I'd consider it a piggybank lol.


Edit: regarding the holos, you could find a provider, not sure how expensive it would be but you might aswell sell some for other casalu holders. Or even organize a groupbuy for anyone holding these coins.

This was about 5-6 years ago, I’m not sure I’d even be able to find the address I sent them from.

If anyone can get their hands on original cas holograms, it will open casascius coins to fraud and this will not be a good thing for current holders of cas coins.

Normally no BTC collectible creator gives or sells his holograms, only DIY versions and rarely
