[WTS] 2013 Casascius 0.5 "Half" Bitcoin "Right off the Roll" Make ANY offer!!

[Yankee (BitInstant)]

We were moving offices and for some reason I peeled off the hologram of EVERY coin and redeemed the private keys I dont know why I did it. I may have been in a mood to condense my Bitcoin into 1 spot and I literally sat there for two goddam hours redeeming those coins.

Oh my.
I'm so sorry..

I know, if I hadn't done that, I could easily have sold those for 180 BTC total.

Goddam it

This is one of those stories for the ages that will be told for generations in your family, and be mentioned in history books about the coins.

Ok, from now on we agree to get people to spend Casascius coins like we try to get anyone to use BTC. None of us will set the example, of course, but keep the chatter to a minimum.

Great. See you all in 20 years when we're the only ones with these good coins left.

Hehe, I think the time for that has passed. It is important to realize that it DID happen; but they say, 'a month is years in Bitcoin'. When the coins came out, they were worth about $5 each and many people gave them as casual gifts, gave them to a friend in return for buying lunch, kept them in their wallet with other coins as a curiosity, etc. over half of some coins have been redeemed, mostly being done early on. That time is now passed, and what is left will only increase in value.

In september I bought a roll of coins and some asics. In under a year the coins have doubled in value and the asics have led to a 7TH+ farm.

I feel you there...I keep buying physicals and miners too!  I wonder when Bitcoin Anonymous will start up and help us folks with our addictions 

Theres a day in my life Ill never forget.

I had a roll of 60x 2011 error coins, back in 2012. This was back when Bitcoin was around $13.

These coins were literally hanging around our office, on everyones desks, we'd give them away, throw them around, whatever

I felt so satisfied after, like 'Yes, now my Bitcoin is all in a wallet together'

We all have these FML moments.  Back in 2007/2008 or 09, can't really remember - I bought 115 shares of Apple @ less than $90 a share; also bought 700 shares of ARMH (like Intel, chips for mobile devices) @ less than 5 and flash crash scared me out of all my stocks. I wound up with profits but it could've been 10 times as much, maybe more even. I bought Visa when it IPO'd for like $50 ish....I dabbled in penny stocks where I was sitting on a 700% gain on Washington Mutual stocks but held too long and the bottom fell out.  Then I hopped into silver beginning of 2011 when it was going parabolic only to see it crash....but in hindsight that was a valuable lesson as I live my life completely different now as I no longer hold the traditional viewpoint of what is money. It was an eye opener. But yeah, 60x 2011 error coins, that one is right up there....

Look at the bright side. You have 60 BTC!

What a shame

There is one positive aspect though:You where testing and verifying that Mikes's private key generator works flawless.
