I have some redeemed Casascius coins and was wondering what they are worth to collectors. They are each in cases and in good shape.

I have:

(2) 2012 1BTC Casascius
(1) 2013 1BTC Casascius
(2) 2012 5BTC Casascius

Any input would be great. Thank you!

**UPDATE**
If you were interested in these coins i've started an auction here for one of them:

I am still looking for advice on the coins.

Thank you!

Here are some 5BTC ->https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1268045.0

Some collectors really like the redeemed stuff (personally I like loaded coins). It is hard to price these so best to auction them off. If you have the peeled holograms that is a plus for them.

Thanks! I'm looking around online and prices are all over the board. The three 1BTC coins have their holograms intact, the 5BTC ones do not. I guess I will be auctioning these off here soon. If anyone wants to buy them feel free to make some reasonable offers by messaging me!

This has probably been answered before and I just could not find any info. I did not know where to ask this question since I am new to coin collecting. Can a able counterfeiter make a hologram copy and glue it to a casascius coin. The person can just get the unredeemed casacius address on uberbills copy it and place it on. Gamble would be to check but then you just destroyed a collectable. Second, If they are graded does anacs check the hologram and color quality.

There has been one case of fake Casascius holograms that I know of but they looked terrible. No doubt there'll be more in the future. Provenance will be more important in the years to come.

I don't think ANACS cares about holograms. They do coins and nothing but.
