@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...

THX

Simon

Also interested.

I'm in the train too!  Grin

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 Smiley
(give or take 50%, but we re used to a bit of BTC volatility Wink )

2014: 1 BTC Gold coin? Gold value still around 1500 USD? Wink

2015: 100 mBTC Gold coin? Wink

5, but 2 of them are opened.

i have one of the 3 not opened.

Do you have taken out insurance for this coin? And if I may be so bold to ask, for how much?

I was joking :p
it wont take long for bitcoin to become more valuable than gold though... Wink

I really think casascius should celebrate this parity with a gold coin!
And that coin would match my 1BTC 1oz silver coin Cheesy

Gold has been suppressed for quite a while. 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.

How much did you sell it for? How did you find a buyer?
