I would say, in my opinion from what I've seen- if any physical Bitcoins will hold value in the future then loaded, high-graded Casascius coins will always be the "gold" of that market. I still need to add a Casascius coin to my collection Asap, where I would hold it like an Oz. of .999 gold, just as a long-term stable store of value. I guess someone could call me optimistic though.
I don't know very much about Casascius coins to be honest. I've been wondering are they still being made or are the existing coins the only ones there will ever be?
The existing coins are all there will ever be. Casascius coins are sort of the best of all the coins since it was the first mover in the market. But it's all slowing down.
I think he might be still selling those large bags of aluminum promo coins that a lot of people try to mark way up on eBay and such, but not sure.
However- I did happen to stumble across
this gem the other day- a Casascius-made coin for the coin toss at the Bitcoin St. Petersburg bowl game! Obviously not the same type of coin as his name brand is famous for, but I still thought it was really cool to see he is working on releasing another coin- in gold plated .999 silver nonetheless!
All I have to say guys- just Please try to save me a couple to buy before one or two Bulk purchases are made by one of your crew!
Sorry for the semi-thread jack, those are great looking coins though. I thought it was especially cool to see the MS-67 grading on the CI 10,000 Dogecoin. Their minting has been fantastic from what I have seen so far, no noticeable nicks or scrapes that I've seen.
