Crypto collectables and traditional numismatic collectors are completely different markets (just like stamps and coins). There are a few that overlap (like me) but I think we are pretty few and far between. I don’t expect the traditional numismatic market to show any interest in crypto collectables for many years if at all. On the other hand the crypto collectable enthusiasts are getting more and more and so I suspect the casascius premium will continue to rise (at least in dollar equivalent terms)

Have to disagree. Many people who collect here were numismatists/traditional coin collectors first. There are traditional coin collectors entering this space all the time. I get messages often on my Instagram “physicalcryptocurrency”account from traditional coin collectors inquiring about these types of coins/wanting to enter the space. This will only increase as time goes on.

OP- heck of a coin. Great job not peeling it over the years. If you’re looking to sell this sooner than later Id post it all over every social media account letting people know ( Facebook, Reddit, Twitter, youtube, etc ).

correct like me

some here know of my buys and sells of these gems however many don't know my past is of over 40 years of coin and comic collecting. I also wrote articles for investors like ( Investing in The New Year) for over 15 years who were subscribed to my IR business (Equity Research IR and or Equity Movers both of which I sold years ago) . Since just before BTC broke $700 I had been introducing coins like these to investor friends for their numismatic potential as well as the BTC potential. Its still a matter demand into an emerging market. The risk increased dramatically when BTC crossed $2,000. So its still a delicate balance of gaining Numismatic value in a highly volatile market place.

Once stability has been established for a longer period of time numismatic values should increase.

I’m a similar tale. Collected coins and cards since I was a kid. Picked it up more so as an adult. I’m an investment advisor so I’m always looking for new finance products. Found btc and shortly after bought some of those copper anonymous mint Coins. Then I came across kialara Casascius and bitcoin Penny and I was hooked. Many others w similar story.

cool ChiBit nice to meet you, I think all the original non loaded collectibles will continue to gain in numismatic values over the years. A lot of these guys like wheelz had some great collectible idea's as this market emerged. I really liked his limited supply of Geneses coins, Fun stuff. Took a while to get my son interested in crypto's but I found a slick way to do it. I had him open a coinbase account a few years back and I gave him some LTC... he is pretty happy now and interested lol... on a side note I am hoping this sustained increase in the price of silver will spark an interest back in MS slabbed coins again like Morgans.

good luck all in the new year with your investments !
