Absolutely agree about the physical crypto section, or sections .... Goods and auctions

Help us coin collectors and sellers keep track things easier. Also keeps us out the way a bit

I know there will be many who feel the same.

Did all the snipers fall asleep?

Surprised that I got it so low, even more surprised that it was the real blazed who PM'ed me (and not a fake).

Replied to PM.


The newbie warning has stopped the fake messages!

About time they did something, glad it seems to be doing the trick

(btw Auctions are dangerous at the moment it seems ....)

I am curious who the 8 good souls are ... I am 1 of them. Happy to state publicly.

I think this is will be a great resource for the community, and I am surprised that more than 8 arent either interested in a hard copy first issue of the book, or dont want to support the project so that it happens

Wondering how we can collectively help to make it happen, as it would be a crying shame if it didnt

It seems unlikely that given the duration that has passed that another 17 are gonna come forward.

Bottom line ... what do you need to make it happen Elianite ?

As we have PM'd before, happy to assist in proof reading drafts, seeing if there is anything else I (we all ?) can do

BTC0.56 if you throw in the piece of paper with "Brewins" written on it.

Push to get the table as well !

Need to lie down

Thanks for this.  If it becomes an issue, or limits the selling price, I'll probably have to do just that.

Yes, exactly. It should not affect the price of this coin for more than the price of this service + the round trip shipping.

The link is here:
http://www.anacs.com/contentPages/Services.aspx?AspxAutoDetectCookieSupport=1

Reholder, $10 per coin.

By the way... Anyone can ask ANACS to reholder the slabs. Doesn't have to be the person who originally submitted it. I have done a couple due to damaged cases that I had bought already graded. One damaged in transit, 1 damaged by UK customs. Best to do it with other gradings to keep the costs down mind

Not looking for a 67. Just interested in seeing if this all worked out. Not often we get any dramas !

Did you end up getting a sale ?
995  Economy / Collectibles / Re: [Sold] Casascius Coins on: May 19, 2015, 10:10:37 AM
The market prices are shifting all the time (and rarely down in BTC pricing), as market for each coin finds its feet and settles, and as stashed rolls get opened and provide some new 'liquidity' (like Camolists 2013 coins)

I recall both buying and selling 0.1's for this region. Graded at 64 and 65 as well. I cant recall whether it was .65, and .75, or .75 and .85. Now I couldnt get an ungraded coin at that, and certainly wouldnt sell one

In the end it was a different market, with a different BTC price. It was also a market that had the same number of coins, but less people interested in them. Now we still have the same number of coins, less available (as they are already in collections), and more people wanting coins. Price inevitably will rise, as interest increases.

(It is refreshing to see a lot of new enthusiasts recently ... Its not just me thinking that right ? Most of the old faces are still hanging in there as well !)




Well summarized there, monkeynuts.

About the part I put in bold, I agree it is nice to see the interest in physical crypto coins remain steady and growing despite a declining Bitcoin price, and nice to see new members/Bitcoiners join in on the hobby (addiction)! Though recent sales of coins may be going a bit slower than before, there is also a much larger variety and total amount of new & second-market coins available nowadays than a couple years ago. I was slightly saddened to see fellow physical crypto coin enthusiasts selling off their collections recently (masterp, cyclops, miffman) as I thought they might be quitting the hobby altogether, only to see that they are still buying coins and refining their collections! I find it quite fun and have always collected coins a bit, love buying/selling/trading them, and hopefully my core collection goes down to my kids someday or gets sold for their college education  Smiley.

Off-Topic but Related: For a little while now I have thought about posting in the Meta section about the possibility of getting a sub-section of the "Goods" board created solely dedicated to the buying/selling/trading of physical cryptos and new releases, discussions, etc. If I wrote up that suggestion sometime, would any of you guys be down to pop in that thread and try to drum up some support behind it? If you are like me and frequently check the "Goods" section on here to scope out new coin threads & sales, I think it could be awesome.

I seem to recall OgNasty was going to ask the mods for a dedicated section. (Og ?) I have to be honest with you, I think we could do with our own goods, and own auctions sections. There is no doubt we are our own sub community. (does that make us even nerdier .... ?). I only really look at Physical crypto elements on here. Separate sections would be really useful.

1BTC error coin still for sale! Offers considered.

Minted in September. Someone needs to put this in a grading slab.

Yep, great early coin. Looks to me like an MS 64 +/- 1 if it was graded by ANACS.

In my mind this coin has a greater premium over face value than the 25 coin does. Every day, of every week,

I finally got round to picking these coins up from the local PO. Nice coins again from FBD, plus great little group buy from MinerJones. All good. Thanks
999  Economy / Collectibles / Re: [WTS] Casascius Coins on: May 17, 2015, 07:40:25 PM
Who started all this nonsense with x times the face value?
The premium of a coin in uncorrelated with the face value.

Agreed Took. Coins are worth what folks are willing to pay for them. Pure and simple.

Nice coins Blazed  Wink

Multiples of face value don't work comparing between different denoms

It's Mark ups over face values due to rarity, condition or desirability

It is exactly the face value of these particular coins that makes it harder to gain a significant mark up. Just not enough folks into physical crypto, with that kind of loose change

As for the translations. If you get 75 for that coin, I can only assume that somewhere in the address there is also 'MUG'. Translated into mandarin as sucker. I have had to check the calendar to make sure it's not April 1st. Thanks for the chuckles.
