Checking interest in a PSA 10 glow-in-the-dark 83 Cryptocurrency card. Prepare to back up the Brinks truck beep beep beep.
That is a keeper, put that in a safe and lock it away. Wait until the common mini's break the 100.00 mark. That's what I would do or invest in a brinks truck ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Dolph, Glad you made your way to the collectibles section. Constant sound, unselfish advice in this thread from you. Cheers!

Here's an Ebay example https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F401621878238

So...I was crunching some numbers to get a better idea of the ever-increasing odds of my sealed Ginter X case holding the magical #83 Cryptocurrency 1/1 silver mini. (I'm equally fond of the /5 red minis, TBH.) First, I searched all the current and previous eBay ads with the keywords "2018 Ginter Silver Mini" in the title. I listed a total of exactly 101 FOUND silver minis, including my own Walker Beuhler RC. Unfortunately, my search would only go back as far as August 31. That means I'm missing all previous sales for the earliest 3+ weeks, so I'm quite sure that several more silver minis have been discovered than my 101-card tally. Plus, since my search was limited to those exact words in the title only, I would have easily missed any listings with slightly different titles such as "2018 Ginter Silver 1/1" etc. Regardless, according to Blowout forums and based on the pack odds of silver minis (1:107), approximately 173 Ginter X cases were produced. The odds say there should be exactly 2 silver minis per case. (My personal experience agrees with these odds.) I'm considering buying a Worthpoint subscription in order to search for all the pre-August 31 eBay listings. I'm quite sure that the bulk of sales happened in the first few weeks, and I'm very interested in calculating the odds of my last Ginter X case holding the 1/1 silver mini. (I may eventually calculate the /5 mini red odds too, which are stated to be 1:22 packs.) I'll keep you guys posted... ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Regards, Chris EDIT: According to the official pack odds, a case should hold an average of 2 silver mini 1/1 cards and 10 red mini /5 cards (as well as 12 Brooklyn, NNO, or Glow-in-the-Dark mini cards — one per box).

There might be a small percentage of 1/1 silver's and red's that get pulled and kept. I doubt that would be the case with #83.

UPDATE: Tonight's research on Blowout Forums adds another 61 silver mini cards to my list of pulled 2018 Ginter X silver mini cards. My running total is now 162 silver mini cards that have been discovered. (So far, none are the elusive #83 Cryptocurrency.) Many more baseball forums and auction sites to search...

Great scavenger hunt. Good luck Thanks, Mrstacy. And to all of you who collect the Ginter X cards, if you wouldn't mind and if it's not too much trouble, I would greatly appreciate PMs to let me know which silver mini cards that you may have in your current collection. (I'll understand if you'd rather keep secret your ownership of a few select silver mini cards, such as the #83 Cryptocurrency. However, please let me know which cards you feel comfortable disclosing to me.) Thank you, everyone. We'll track down that elusive #83 Cryptocurrency silver mini card soon enough! Regards, Chris
