Hey all

For all of you that appreciated the allen and ginter cards, here is the first ever crypto card made in 2013 on display.  If you have one of these you want to sell I sure wouldn't mind having two of them.  The display box was easy to make lol.  First offer of 4 BTC gets the one crypto card and display box only. I priced this based on my opinion it will grade around PSA 7.   I would have asked 10 BTC if it was gem mint lol.  Shocked

Wow, so many to chose from but, for the coin category I have to go with the gold Doge.  For the card category it has to be the 2013 Crypto card, ginter x red mini. For original paintings only it's a 3-way tie between Planet NEO, (return from) the 2BITCAR(save the bees) and planet BITCOIN (the scream)

Just throwing it out there, I'm interested in reasonably priced metal minis for anyone holding any.

Those are really cool, never have pulled one.
1325  Economy / Collectibles / Re: [INFO] Topps Allen & Ginter Reference Thread on: January 07, 2019, 10:35:04 PM
Fingers crossed there is a big jump in price between a PSA 9 and a PSA 10.

If you have a handful of the ginter x mini's there is a good chance you will get a grade 10 on one of them but, if you only have one the odds are against it.  So far the mini is batting 0 for 11.  Send down to the minors.  Roll Eyes

Hello All




Let me know if anyone has the original crypto card from 2013 def con conference in Las Vegas.., or the community crypto cards.  they want to sell 

Feel free to pm me

Good eye. Wow that is why no 10s for this card. 

So is it possible that all 50? were printed this way?


I just checked mine and they are centered to the eye. Granted I did not use a comparator loupe. I really do need to send them in for grading.

I think you have one of my original display cases of ginter x black mini's, hope you get a PSA 10 on the #83. Smiley
1328  Economy / Collectibles / Re: [INFO] Topps Allen & Ginter Reference Thread on: January 07, 2019, 03:39:06 PM
There is a good chance that a few of the ginter x mini's #83 that I first auctioned in the display cases will grade at PSA 10.  I always look at my cards under a 10X and handle with gloves and recall looking at a few gems.  Hope those auction winners get 10's Smiley

I assume nitrile or latex gloves, correct? as to me, cotton gloves would be a corner catching hazard.

I use cotton and never touch the edges otherwise you are correct the cotton can catch the edge.  Many do not use gloves and that's ok too, just make sure hands are clean and free of any oil.  I don't believe gloves are used at PSA during grading but, those are professionals and know how to handle a card carefully.

There have been 11 graded so far and only 6 have obtained a grade of 9.  With such a limited supply of these, it pushes the grade 9 to an even higher value than I had first thought.  Quite a challenge this little mini has turned out to be.   Smiley

I have a few that were better centered but, many of them could have been off center just out of the 5% tolerance allowance to grade PSA 10.

A mini Ginter X sold for $650.  Must have sold in seconds.  Didn't even notice it before.



If you look closely at the photo it appears off center.   Look at the left and right borders.

To me there's a difference between artwork and a collectible. Some pieces that we've seen over the years have been pure works of art, and some have been only for the ones brave enough to buy it.

My personal favorite of collectibles have been the Genesis coins that wheelz1200 made, awesome coins, great idea on distribution as well as the different collaborations between other members to display a full set properly. 10/10 for me!

Bitcoinpenny comes in at an extremely close 2nd place. Same thing there, collectible, affordable, great packaging and the added touch of a handmade doodle with each purchase brings it home for me, again 10/10.

I am with you on the Bitcoinpenny, beautiful and affordable.  I passed out silver ones to the dolphriends and they loved them.

Favorite collectible is the #83 red mini #/5 by Topps
1335  Economy / Collectibles / Re: [INFO] Topps Allen & Ginter Reference Thread on: January 04, 2019, 06:10:52 PM
There is no doubt that the hottest card from the 2018 A&G release was the #83 cryptocurrency.  Without a doubt this forum put this card into the fastest rising star category for a non sportscard.  Great job collectors Smiley
1336  Economy / Collectibles / Re: [INFO] Topps Allen & Ginter Reference Thread on: January 03, 2019, 06:45:30 PM
Hmm. A 2017 Ginter x box can be had for 120, so 2018 is a unicorn year.

Still. that is a good return 50 bucks per box-600 per case.  You can buy a ton of cards with those profits.

This was an exceptional year for A&G and I'm sure they know it.   Smiley
1337  Economy / Collectibles / Re: [INFO] Topps Allen & Ginter Reference Thread on: January 03, 2019, 01:36:32 PM
I know collectors that never crack open boxes, if they want a specific card they buy the card and whatever the cost is they feel it is less than opening boxes.  Right now if a ginter x red mini comes up for sale at say 5,000 it is an absolute steal and would be sold the same day.  Doesn't need to be graded because there are only a few that exist.  I won't even guess how high a PSA 10 would go for.  I try never to look at past values but, rather where values are headed and do I like the card.  This works for me and I have fun with it.  Have fun out there fellow card collectors Cool

We will have to wait and see when a red mini 1/5 or silver 1/1 comes up for sale Smiley Smiley

My theory holds for ginter x mini 1/100 ( recent sales in 600 range) and no numbers  150 (recent sales in 1200 range). I see no reason why a Brooklyn 1/25 would not go for 2400.

We will need to wait awhile to see if the theory holds true all the way through the 1/1 but, I believe the mini red #/5 will near the 15,000 range in the not to distant future.  In the non sportscard collection community spending 100's of thousands on rare cards goes on all the time.  Example the black lotus that I posted.  I for one will not be shocked to see a PSA 10 red mini go for 100,000.  Time will tell, but think I'm fairly close Cool

Man, i love Dolphriends optimism and insight.  Makes all this so fun. Thanks

Thanks Mrstacy, if it ever becomes work and not fun it's time to hang it up. Smiley



One interesting and exciting thing with trading these baseball cards is that on two occasions, the relative of one of the players bought one of my cards.  Ok, i'm not 100 percent sure, but they had unique  last names (Buehler and Banda).  It's still fun and you can make walking around money doing so.

That is pretty cool Cool

I think I need to get busy and send my cards in to PSA for grading: can't get top dollar on eBay without that good PSA grade.

I feel very fortunate that I have a friend that helps me in pre grading my cards before I send one in since I am looking for 10's, saves me time and funds.  Good luck I hope you get a bunch of 10's.  Roll Eyes
