Hello Mr. Lee,

I think the 10 cas goes for at least 13BTC

I think the bitbills collection goes for on average slightly overload value.

The bitbills are slightly harder to pin down, less well know and recognizable then the cas.

Either way this is quite the horde in terms of BTC and crypto history.

I agree. The 1 BTC bitbill might go for a large premium, but the rest have too high of a value. Premium in BTC terms will likely be limited. But Bitbills are the first ever bitcoin collectible. Super historic.

This is the first 10 cas I have seen go for auction before. I do not know how the market will behave. 13BTC is my educated guess.

GC is a niche auctionhouse that not many people know about, let alone have used before. Stacksbowers is more mainstream with better marketing.

Going with stacks would garner much more attention from numismatic collectors, but there is no guarantee on premium there either.

The 1 bitbills will definitely go for a premium above 1BTC. It is also the first PCGS bitbills I have ever seen sold.

Beautiful coins. Pure history.

Doesn't get much better than this. I love how PCGS is grading BitBills now! 

Best,

   Amazing collection you have there Charlie.....I have been participating in this auction as well.

   Curious to see where the prices go with the Bitbills in particular....never seen them graded or for auction outside this forum!

   Goodluck with it all....They will become someone's amazing collection and a big part of history as well.

A rare opportunity, good luck !

Amazing pieces, for me the 10 BTC cas is (and will stay, haha) a dream coin. Great looking coin in PS-69 - just wow.

Good luck with the sale, I think all pieces here would make a great foundation for a Bitcoin collectible museum.

   Thanks for letting us know...it would be good if they posted this on their website as well for people that are looking forward to paying with Bitcoin.

   Prices on these items are slowly but surely going up.

  I also see a Litecoin Ballet Block for auction as well....wonder what that will bring!

Considering the last two 25 BTC Cas to sell on their went for only ~$50,000 over premium (less if you factor in the forks) (not accounting for buyer premium) 2-3 BTC over is probably correct.

Edit: looks like prices might include premium, so technically they really sold for under BTC value?
