UPDATE Oct 17, 2013: All remaining Casascius 1oz Silver coins are now goldplated on the B and on the entire rim (all the way from obverse to reverse!)

http://casascius.wordpress.com/2013/06/27/silver-coins-now-here/

I'm pleased to report that I'm selling silver coins again.

I am now taking orders for Silver Bitcoin Halfs: half a bitcoin on a half ounce of silver.  These come in a mint tube of twelve coins.  The coin is plain silver.

I am temporarily accepting orders for single silver coins.

I have one-ounce 1BTC coins in the works, as well as 0.1BTC silver coins (7.5g).  Just some final logistical details to work out on them.

Order at https://casascius.com

UPDATE: Got the 1BTC ounces too, and here's a photo!  (they both have the same Series 3 hologram)


Companies claiming they got hacked and lost your coins sounds like fraud so perfect it could be called fashionable.  I never believe them.  If I ever experience the misfortune of a real intrusion, I declare I have been honest about the way I have managed the keys in Casascius Coins.  I maintain no ability to recover or reproduce the keys, not even under limitless duress or total intrusion.  Remember that trusting strangers with your coins without any recourse is, as a matter of principle, not a best practice.  Don't keep coins online. Use paper or hardware wallets instead.

It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

Soon... Just expecting the holograms.

Very first orders can have choice of 0.5 BTC hologram from Series 2 0.5BTC brass coin.  I have a brand new Series 3 hologram for this coin otherwise.

Hm. How many 0.5BTC brass holograms are set aside for the silver coins?

No longer buying/selling Casascius coins. Beware scammers.

I anticipate limiting the availability of the brass coin sticker to perhaps the first couple weeks of orders, and up to a max of 1 tube per customer.

Any way to buy the 1 ounce silver as blanks?

I am addicted to carrying some silver around in my pocket every day and the holograms won't last.

Put it in a clear air-tight plastic capsule.

I'll send the one-ounce singles in airtites.

The half ounce singles, I will have to either get some airtites or rings, or make some rings (my laser machine can probably make them...done it before)

Thanks for your order BTW, and I'll definitely be ordering some of yours.  (It'll be the only Litecoins I'll probably own)

Doesn't quite have the same sound as silver on silver. I will probably just have to "launder" some bitcoins off the silver and into my offline wallet on the coins I want to tinker with.

I have the rings. Just ship them and the air-tights separately. I can assemble them. Thanks. Smiley

As far as you owning some litecoins, eh, i figured it was a matter of time. =)
