CASASCIUS XV15th Anniversary Tribute · 2011-2026This month marks the 15th anniversary of Casascius Physical Bitcoins.
In September 2011, Mike Caldwell offered the first Casascius Physical Bitcoins for sale, helping establish what would become the world of physical Bitcoin collecting.
I didn't want the anniversary to pass unnoticed.
So I created
Casascius XV, a small Finite by Design tribute to the physical Bitcoin that helped start it all.
15 years. Two metals. 15 of each.
BRASS EDITION · $15040 mm laser-engraved brass.
15 individually numbered pieces, 01/15-15/15.
Buyer Funded.
STAINLESS STEEL EDITION · $15040 mm laser-engraved stainless steel with selective MOPA color treatment, including a gold-toned Bitcoin symbol and subtle tonal treatment across the radial fields.
15 individually numbered pieces, 01/15-15/15.
Buyer Funded.
Both editions carry a Finite by Design tamper-evident hologram with the private key concealed beneath it. Three concentric rings of binary surround the reverse as a nod to the design language of the original.
An Artist Proof and ZERO of each material are retained by Finite by Design outside of the numbered editions.
