Title: [Coming Dec 1] The CASASCIUS 10 BTC 1 oz SILVER ROUND Post by: casascius on November 09, 2011, 08:00:01 PM I am thrilled to be able to announce that I will soon have a silver round worth real bitcoins.
This 1 troy ounce silver round is patterned after my other two coins so they all look like a matched set. The front side has the big B bitcoin logo, and the back side has a hologram concealing the private key worth 10 bitcoins. This round will also come in a protective capsule with an available gift box. It's at the perfect price point for a moderately sized gift (final price to be announced later). I am expecting a decent chance that these will be able to ship prior to Dec 1. They will be available for purchase at Casascius.com for BTC, as well as MemoryDealers.com for USD. I am considering accepting pre-orders, mainly if there is an interest in locking in the price, since it will fluctuate on both the silver and the BTC. (I am also considering doing a 1000 BTC 1oz gold coin to fill out the set, but obviously this is a niche item only for the serious collector, since this would be a ~$5000 coin. Would do this as a pooled one-time run. PM if interested.)

So 10 bitcoins of value ($30), plus the value of one once of silver ($35), plus your tooling costs and margin, so something around the $90-$100 price point?

It'll be a little more at Memory Dealers, only because you're really paying for the privilege of paying with PayPal or credit card and his free shipping promotion whenever he's running it.
