Title: Casascius “store front” bitcoin sign
Post by: ChiBitCTy on July 30, 2023, 07:23:37 PM
This is something I feel like I’ve never seen come up for sale here or even being mentioned at all.   Way back when I found this video while doing a search on YouTube. This is how I learned how to properly pronounce “Casascius”. It cracks me up when I see people mispronouncing it as I think most of us have been in that same boat at one point in time lol.

Anyways, just curious if anyone around here has one? Certainly a rare Casascius piece, would be a nice addition to a Casascius collection.

  Niice find Ty!  Never new Casascius made store front signs at all! And yes it would be a nice addition for my collection as well!  :D

  I wonder how many he made? Also were they ever for sale on his site? Curious to see what you can find on this awesome looking sign!

  Nice piece of history...thanks for sharing!

Ten were made, at least initially:

I had a batch of 10 custom storefront LED signs made.  I'm selling nine of them.  $200 $175 each plus shipping, in BTC equivalent.

  Cyrus....thanks for the deep digging into this sign and also for the thread Casascius made to sell these signs!

   Now the hunt begins to see if we can find any left out there as well as to make sure they are the real signs and not a knockoff of the originals!

    Goodluck to ye all on the hunt! ;)
