I've omitted the coins that are not listed there anymore, seems quite a few have vanished.

Can anyone let me know if I've missed any.

This is a great analysis and simple way to look at it, if your coin was loaded prior to BCH fork it automatically has 6% extra value. Interesting.....

You are forgetting BSV, the 2nd most valuable fork behind BCH.  I would argue that everything below Bitcoin Gold is not worth redeeming or even mentioning. There is no liquidity and very few people would have accounts at exchanges that are trading Bitcoin Private, for example.  It's just not worth time to a. find a compatible wallet, b. sync the blockchain, c. claim the forked coins, d. sign up to sketchy altcoin exchange, and e. convert to a minimal amount of BTC.  Some exchanges will not let you trade/withdraw anything that doesn't meet a minimum amount, so there's a good chance it's a total waste of time.

Just count the BTC + BCH + BSV and be done with it.  Anyone who was doing this math and paid for these forks on a Casascius coin during the pump and dumps of 2017-2018 ended up losing money, because they were not able to peel and redeem any of that value.  There's no buyer who buys a Casascius coin with the plan to peel it, so in reality none of this will ever come into play for a buyer.  It's mostly for the seller to try and over-emphasize what a buyer is receiving at a single point in time.  If you instead emphasize the collector value, scarcity and BTC appreciation potential, it comes across as much more genuine.

This is one of the best posts I've read in a while. Brilliantly stated Hybridsole. It's posts like this that educate so many people.
PS: Nice work from No_2 for adding it all up because it's absolutely worth knowing, but no doubt Hybrid came up with the absolute most effective and efficient outcome if anyone were to ever peel to begin with which most are not. Thanks for the posts gents!

Due to the BTC price rise I've dropped all the prices of coins.

Wow this is so mind-blowing... I just have 0,1 BTC and damn it I wish I would have been earlier to the party to get these coins too.

Its not too many years ago that 10 BTC and 25 BTC Casascius coins was sold on a regular basis in this section... that is mind blowing to think about. 

In any case, its never too late to join the crypto party, you will be surprised how much your 0.1 will be worth in 3-5 years from now, the tricky thing is not to loose it on the way, gamble it, spend it or buy shitcoins.

    - Casascius Brass Series 2 1BTC but with 2012 front – these are very rare, no COA – 1.9BTC each, 2 available. This item includes a capsule. Coins are mint and untouched since receipt.

These are actually some of the most common Casascius coins out there:  3rd highest mintage!!!     ..... and the most often sold in past few years....  

This is interesting. I've been paying over the odds in that case :/ for these.

Do you have any more info on this?

I do... The Encyclopedia of Physical Bitcoins is a decent guide...  think there is even an online free one for the Cas coins

Ok, so they seem pretty common, about 50% the amount of the 2013 series 2 backs. Not sure where the story they are rare came from, I was repeating what people had said to me.

Have you seen any 2011 series 2 backs? Not sure I have...

I've listed some of the coins I have for sale on the new Particl market, see link:

https://www.demarkets.io/explorer

Particl is a fully decentralised market place on a block chain - it's not implemented in ethereum - I've been testing it and it works really well; I've sold one item so far and bought another, it was smooth and easy.

If you want to buy or sell you can download the wallet here:

https://particl.io/downloads/

Create a new wallet and call it 'market' to see all the listings in your wallet.

Snazzy marketing video:

As a local rule to this board, if items are not also priced in BTC, this needs to be moved to the "Alt-Coin Marketplace" section of the forum

Ok, that makes sense. Any chance you could leave this thread here and I'll start a separate one for this related topic under alts?

Bump - prices updated.
