@Casascius
Will there be new gold coins? Like a 20 BTC or so? Any plans for the near future? Wish I would have bought one of these back then...

Interested in hearing if there are any plans to make any more of these coins, maybe a special order?

The Casascius 1oz 10BTC Silver Round (w/ Gold B)

I'm looking into it.
I might do a 10 BTC coin. Just the fact that an ounce of gold went from being a neat way to dress 1000 BTC down to 10 BTC in two consecutive years makes for a noteworthy story in and of itself.

Companies claiming they got hacked and lost your coins sounds like fraud so perfect it could be called fashionable. I never believe them. If I ever experience the misfortune of a real intrusion, I declare I have been honest about the way I have managed the keys in Casascius Coins. I maintain no ability to recover or reproduce the keys, not even under limitless duress or total intrusion. Remember that trusting strangers with your coins without any recourse is, as a matter of principle, not a best practice. Don't keep coins online. Use paper or hardware wallets instead.

What about a coin identical to this one (1000 BTC funded) made to order? |

It's a pitty you didn't create the 1000 BTC coin in 2011 when BTC was around 1$ and GOLD (at that time) 1400 USD Than you should have created a 100 BTC 1oz GOLD coin in 2012 when BTC was valued 10$ and GOLD 1600 USD Than you could create 10 BTC coin this year with BTC at 100$ and GOLD at 1300$ The BTC and GOLD value of those coins could have been -at time of production- roughly the same  (give or take 50%, but we re used to a bit of BTC volatility  ) 2014: 1 BTC Gold coin? Gold value still around 1500 USD? 2015: 100 mBTC Gold coin? |

No insurance, but i have 4 rotts and i'm better armed than most island nations...
That's my kind of insurance. Some of the crazier ones here have tigers too. |

I was joking :p it wont take long for bitcoin to become more valuable than gold though... I really think casascius should celebrate this parity with a gold coin! And that coin would match my 1BTC 1oz silver coin |

It makes no sense, demand for gold is rising greatly yet the price keeps dropping. Bitcoin is unsuppressable by the JP Morgan's, Goldman Sach's and HSBC's of this world. |
