Does anybody happen to know the diameter of the 0.5 coins?

https://www.casascius.com
"฿1 Casascius Coin: This is a solid brass coin.  Each 1-bitcoin coin is about 1.125inch (28.6mm) in diameter (just bigger than a US quarter but smaller than a half-dollar) and weighs a quarter ounce.  Perfect as a small gift to introduce someone to Bitcoin.  Also available in a ฿0.5 version which is slightly smaller at 1 inch (25.4mm)."

So if Mike (Casascius) announces he is done, prices will inevitably skyrocket. If he starts producing again prices will probably stay the same or decrease by 0.1 or so. So who is gambling on whether or not he is done?

Some say these will be some of the most expensive coins in the world.

im torn personally. On one hand, they will become valuable with time.

on the other hand, with the BTC/USD rate relatively low at this time, you might get a higher multiple of facevalue (ie: 2.5BTC for a 1BTC coin) now then you will when the price of BTC is $7000

I agree to a point. If Casascius coins continue to be produced then the coins will see a steady premium of 1.1-1.3. If he does not continue then these become high collectors items. The older the higher the premium. Just as Liberty dollars can go for tens of thousands of dollars Casascius coins will fetch the same premiums to collectors wishing to own history. I would put the value at 1.5-2.5x the value based on year with original errors fetching 5-20x value based on age and condition.

Interested in coin-for-coin trades? I've got some first-funded (1Ag1) all-silver 2013 1BTC coins, with pgp docs from Mike identifying me as the original owner. Wouldn't mind trading one or two of them for the gold-plated ones to help round out my collection.

If what you're saying is that it's better to invest in bitcoin itself than in the premiums of Casascius coins, I would agree.  If bitcoins go to $7,000,  a Casascius coin will not necessarily increase to $18,000.  I doubt that it would, but who knows?

I wonder how the possibility of counterfeiting these coins is going to be cooked in their market value of time.
How does one prove that the coin for sale is an absolute original unless it somehow was graded BEFORE the august announcement of counterfeit coins in circulation??

I keep the original documentation showing the original owner but how can even that be trusted?

The counterfeit ones are so easy to spot. You can check ubberbills as well.

Do you think that someone who is able to counterfeit a convincing replica of a Casascius coin is unable to counterfeit a convincing replica of an ANACS grading slab?

Personally, I have a PGP-signed message from Mike, plus all original packing including the casascius-stamped shipping box. The coins themselves would also be quite difficult, though not impossible, to counterfeit; same with holograms.

On that note; I have a few of the Silver-with-Gold 2013's still in my possession; handled only with nitrile gloves and sealed in airtites. I'm open to trades- or preferably- 2.5BTC each

I ordered mine when they first went on sale in 2011, no special packaging. Just an envelope with a few coins in them, they were not even individually wrapped. I can prove I purchased them and that’s it, that, and that I started hanging around here in 2012. and I’ll make a public hoo haa when I sell them.
