I'd rather it be a trusted member here than a dropship service

Hi blazed! Thanks so much for the advice! I took a look at the ANACS website earlier, and was a bit confused regarding the submission form. It said that a cryptocurrency coin costed $19 to grade, however it also said the max value of the coin could only be $100. Should I instead choose the "priority" option instead of the "cryptocurrency" option? Also, I do not have a mylar flap to store the coin in for shipping. Is that necessary, or can I just ship it in the case that its currently stored in? Honestly, it seemed a little scary to send a coin worth $$$$ with an printed order form and that was the only thing holding me back from having it graded.

Thanks so much for the offers bevicrypto and RealHummer! I appreciate the consideration, however, I am firm with my 2.0btc ask price. This is one of the lowest price offers recently for a 1btc gilt coin, and I think it's a competitive and fair price.

Blazed would you be up to having the seller cancel the auction and sell per coin? I had mentioned to him a few days ago I was interested when he had 1 coin up in a post and I mentioned it again and said I would take one if he had others but this is all in the auction. The seller said he is willing to split them up if you are and thought it might be better for you if you didnt want all 5, I know someone else also mentioned taking one. I will take 2 myself actually. thoughts please if its a no I understand.

OK. After seeing numerous posts and having to respond to repeated claims that "2FA coins are not under your control", I'm now feeling compelled to clarify the issue here.

Based on MY best understanding, the so called two-factors coins are actually exactly the same as the so called private-key coins in their physical shape and form as well as their material composition. The ONLY difference between the two is HOW the private key is handled. Perhaps that is the point - people having or believing they have the private key sealed on the back of the coin tend to feel that they are in total control when the facts are:

- You won't know if a private key is there until you unseal the coin.
- An average person wont' be able to tell if a private is valid or not until that person actually tries to redeem the coin, as the company could misprint and printed the wrong key.
- You won't know for sure the non-existence of another copy of the private key somewhere else.

Thus, when you purchase a private key coin you must take a FAITH in the business that you're dealing with, cause it is not possible for you to rule out the risk above in advance.

Now, if you have faith in a company for all of the above, why would you not trust them for 2FA coins? Perhaps, you worried about them losing the private keys? I tend to believe the odd of them losing the private key databases is no greater than me losing the coins. Reason? Those private key databases are encrypted so they can easily backed up and have multiple copies stored at different places (it's even safe to save them in the cloud). Given everything done properly it's still the decryption key printed inside the security seal of the coin that matters, which is in your hands.

Hope this is useful.

We had a couple simple ones in mind. I'm liking the simplicity of them.



These will be embroidered but we'll need enough interest to create an order.

I really hope people don't start marketing Casascius with BCH amounts included, so lame.

You assume correct:
