Good coins to buy/collect under 0.5?

[Decoded]

Thinking of buying some cryptocoins. Anyone have any suggestions on what to buy that's cheap and looks good (and even rare)?

I'm also thinking whether I should buy a few 0.5 coins or maybe 1 4 btc coin? What would you recommend?

It's a coin that's (still) in the works, but it seems like a coin that fits your criteria in my biased opinion 

For the record, there is still no confirmed sales date.

Well, Casascius 2013 Silver half Oz 0.5 BTC MS-69's are rare. I've one for sale. (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1460749) It's among the ~19% of the finest graded coins of that sort.

And these coins itself, even if not graded, are quite rare. ...or you can try your luck in my raffle for a Casascius Bitcoin Bowl coin. (Though it doesn't contain bitcoins!) https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1508417

Seems right now you can pick up some lealanas for a great price with small premium to its loaded value.  Question you got to ask yourself is loaded/unloaded, metal type, mintage, etc.  Once you answer those you can narrow down your choices....careful though....its quite addicting

May I suggest picking up a copy of the Encyclopedia of Physical Bitcoins at https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1497543.0

You can see all the coins there and see what appeals to you.

You can try pick up a Ravenbit brass coin, the grey ones go for about 0.03 btc at the moment which would leave you a budget to buy more. You might be able to snag a Microsoul coin and even a Dogecoin with the remainder. They're all pretty nice looking coins, infact besides the cheap Chinese knockoffs most of the coins traded look decent. The sooner the better really, because as these get snapped up into peoples collections, they may not come back out.

I've taken a look at some Ravenbit brass coins - I've gotta say, theyre cheap and beautiful. Can't seem to find any more on sale, except for on digicoin's thread, which was bumped last month.

I am also looking for a nice physical bitcoin so if you find something you like i will split the shipping with you.
We could always enter a few raffles together if you are interested, although it would not be easy and we would need to work out all terms first.

I've purchased a ravenbit grey address brass from digicoin not that long ago (3 weeks, maybe?), if you're looking to pick one up, I'd take a shot and send him a message about it.

Purchased one yesterday, almost felt bad considering the low btc amount they are going for right now
You can currently get them for a steal.


Lealana sets recently changed prices and you can get the full 4 (silver) coin set for 0.55BTC now (+ shipping and customs probably), so those are close to 0.5BTC now aswell.

$179 for the artist ones.

I don't know if you still can get the 2015's for $99, but you might have to message kialara for those details.

2014's will run you a decent amount I think. Last guy I saw trying to sell was asking like 0.4BTC
