[ANN/INFO] CARDSMITHS - CURRENCY SERIES 1 TRADING CARDS

[Todamont]

I only have a few refractors, Beryl 26, 54, 56, MR7, Emerald 16, 31, and Amethyst 31. I would be open to sell or trading one or two of them for a CS 53. What do you think will be the market value of a diamond refractor? $800 maybe?

  I have a #53 CS for you. $200 is to much. I dont feel good about taking that much from you. I'm gone the next 2 days but ill PM you on Saturday and well figure something out.

And yes im thinking $500-800 for a diamond sounds like an accurate starting price. But I actually dont even think youll see one for sale. Everyone just gonna hold them.

[Todamont]

Thank you Cryptogreatdane, that means a lot for you to help me complete my CS set I won't forget it. We shall see how high a base #1A can go, here:

It looks like a #53 Litecoin Gold was pulled in this break, but i couldn't see a number on the back when shown (possible error card)

While I am not familiar with this collector/youtuber, it does appear you are correct.
There is no numbering stamp where it should be in the red circle, making this an error card
So far this is the second error refractor? the other being the out of 159 Beryl

You should be careful with those screw cases, they are known to ruin cards

This is news to me, but after reading it seems the non-recessed screw downs are the culprit, ones I’m using have a recess so it’s not extra tight in there. Will probably still look into other holders

....Forwarding all of these errors to the printer. 

If any of you get an error Gemstone card, send an email to customer service.  They can sometimes have the card reprinted or corrected.  They will of course destroy the old card if it has to be replaced. 

[Todamont]

I don't know much about card collecting. With coins, some types of errors are good, other types impart no extra value or actually ruin the value of the coin. Would error cards be considered more collectible or less desireable here?

[PreciousMetapsICT]

As long as the error doesn’t make it “look like shit” (Yoda quote) - it’s a good thing IMO. But when it does look like shit then it hurts the value as few people would want to buy it (just hardcore collectors)

What if it’s a double error?  Does that mean you’re a double fuck up? 😂😭

Hey Jupityr, is there any update as to if PSA will accept submissions of these cards for grading?

Love this project btw, good work

Thanks for the kind words!

We have been working with Mike Baker Authenticated to get the catalog listed with PSA.  I've asked for an update, but haven't heard back on that yet.

I'm sure BGS will grade them though.  I can send Renee the checklist and answer any questions they may have.

Hey JUPITYR,

Are you able to give the community here any update regarding the discussions with Mike at PSA so collectors can have these cards graded?
I am guessing anyone receiving a Diamond would want to have it graded if possible

[Todamont]

Looks like the market has set a new price on the #1A and it's about the same as the old price. $52

Is there a time frame for how long redemption cards can be redeemed?

There was probably a bit of hype around these cards, esecially leading up to the redemption program as collectors where trying to complete sets.
My guess is that these cards will continue to rise in price unless more start popping up soon, maybe they are in unopened boxes, or maybe they are just a rare base card.

Who knows?  Maybe.  ;-)

Cracking open a new large box tonight. Will post findings again. I still haven’t heard of a 1btc recovery, anyone hear or seen a 1 btc redemption?
