I am a miner first and foremost, a collector second. I originally came to the collectibles area looking for a way to store BTC for my kids and grandchildren and was humbled by the collections of many of the forum members here and found myself desiring to start my own collection. My hope is to eventually have one of everything and to keep them preserved, handed down to my 9-year old grandson who is also a novice miner and is also starting to collect crypto related items. I put a percentage of my mining rewards towards buying collectibles – so the more block rewards, the more I can buy – c’mon blocks! I currently mine BTC, LTC, Doge, DGB, XVG, PYRK, LITB, BTX, ETH, RVN, HNS and XMR.
So now that 6 months have passed since my first purchase here in the collectibles forums, I wanted to make a post to document my purchases and auction/raffle wins that I have gained since the start. I hope to start adding more valuable items soon!
I was originally going to post things in the order I collected them, but I thought that might be too chaotic – so I am going to instead group them up. I hope that makes it a bit easier to keep track of what I have and what I may be missing.
I also have about 30 more items that have not yet arrived, they may have a stock image and an “en route” message, I will update the thread as they come in. I am also not including anything I owned prior to venturing here (I have more stuff lol) and I am not including my graveyard museum of older miners or current miners.

MISC COLLECTIBLES
This one came in a lot with a bunch of other stuff – not sure who made it or how they generated the keys – will never use!
cryptowallet.cards – does not use any private keys – simply provide your public address and they generate a card with QR code – note, the address I used is a compromised address so I will never use this card.
WEIDUK – basic cards to provide easy to use QR codes for accepting payments on BTC, ETH, LTC and Doge --- no private keys are generated, they use public addresses provided by the buyer
SmartPayMINT Tron(TRX) Card. (love how they spelt Crypto as “Cryypto”)
Crypto Pod Dice – nice looking dice with Mantis Crypto logo and Bitcoin logo on dice.
Anonymous and Spy Stainless Steel Cards by liquidoptions #9 of 11 --- I am working on a frame that will hold these and have some RGB LED’s that light them up from the backside. Will update pictures once done.

This shows is the key to the markings on the IPO52 cards

FreeRoss.org Digitible Bar # 95 of 500
Anarcoins Silver Wallet – Unobtanium .999 Fine Silver Bar #13. Has set of holograms but not ones that match the bar’s numbers – this I also read was another issue that BigTimeSpaghetti had with not matching them up.
2oz ? Copper 4-year anniversary Doge bar also by BigTimeSpaghetti.
The next five are all part of MKBARZ .999 FS 1oz cryptocurrency collection. The last three of them are error pieces with misspelling of “cryptpcurrency” He has since fixed this error.

CRYPTO STAMPS
Austrian CS1 – one of each color: Blue, Green, Yellow and Black
Austrian CS2 – One of each animal for the colors Black, Blue, Green and Yellow. Private keys were obtained using a flashlight – note one private key passphrase has “satoshi” as one of the words.
Croatian Crypto stamps - due to the way they place the private keys on the stamp – I am not showing an actual picture of my stamps – I am really surprised they did not think to put something over the private key – could have done a hologram or at least made it a scratch off – the rest of their packaging was good – impossible to scan the code without opening it. There are 5 Tiers (one stamp per tier) I have one of each except for Tier 2. And I have an extra of tier 4 that is a cancelled stamp.
Stamp Layout/Appearance
Tier 1 – Drone
Tier 3 - Boat
Tier 4 – Train
Tier 5 – Combined Vehicle (Van)
