Just to clarify, we have no control over what PSA includes in their population reports.  That said, the Diamond Gemstone 1/1's should be listed separate from the Proofs, which it seems like PSA is already setting up since they specifically listed the Proofs in a way which we assume will be separate from the 1/1's.  If they end up getting lumped together at some point we can mention it to them, but ultimately they are the ones controlling the report.

Still, I wouldn't be overly concerned about what PSA shows on the population report.  They are always more of guide than an exact number.  For instance, if you submitted a 1/1 to PSA and got say a 9, but later cracked it out and resubmitted and again got a 9, it would show a total of two 9's in the population report.  Perhaps they'd catch it, but grading millions of cards a month it might be tricky.

Has anyone seen an instance of duplicate numbered cards? I found a slabbed version of my 1A amethyst 02/49 on eBay.

Edit: actually upon further inspection, the front is a 1A but the rear is a 1. Pretty misleading...

Doing some digging around on the PSA site.

This has a few of the diamond refractors listed as:

1 Bitcoin Diamond Gemstone Refractor-Proof
1A Bitcoin Diamond Gemstone Refractor-Proof
7 Nikola Tesla Diamond Gemstone Refractor-Proof
10 Bitcoin Diamond Gemstone Refractor-Proof
14 Ethereum Diamond Gemstone Refractor-Proof
28A Elon Musk Diamond Gemstone Refractor-Proof
41 Abraham Lincoln Diamond Gemstone Refractor-Proof
57 Salvatore Mundi Diamond Gemstone Refractor-Proof

Perhaps they pulled this information from ebay, as I know a few of these were listed on ebay at some point.


The page also lists most Onyx under the proper card number and name, e.g.

1 Bitcoin Onyx Gemstone Refractor 1/1

If you are getting diamond graded by psa, check that they don't wrongly describe them as onyx.  Maybe @jupityr can have them add 1/1 diamond to their database

Yes, same denominations as Currency Series 1.  Yes, both Street Fighter and Bob Ross packs have a chance at finding one.

I think the v2 cards look cool. SBF card will probably be remembered more as an interesting gag over time as I think he's gonna trade that ankle-bracelet for a good long stint in a federal f-you-in-the-a prison. Only time will tell.

Do you think V1 card sets will go up in value or down in value after the V2 cards are released?

Sorry to hear that, but I understand your position.  

In fairness, the set was never intended to be primarily about Bitcoin or any cryptocurrency for that matter.

The goal was always to tell a story about money and finance through trading cards.  That includes a number of different people, currencies, cryptos, memes and commodities.  Not all of which I or anyone at Cardsmiths personally agrees with or condone.  I certainly don't agree with fiat currencies, Sam Bankman Fried, Mt Gox, using wooden sticks as money, or the Bitconnect scam, but all are part of the history of money at this point.

That said, there are more BTC and Satoshi specific cards in Series 1 than any other card type and Series 2 has close to 15 cards that are either specifically BTC, Satoshi or BTC adjacent.  That's slightly more than the amount we had of the same in series 1.  We've just elected to tease more of the other cards types thus far to try and appeal to a broader audience.  The best way to educate people about the benefits of Bitcoin is by weaving it into a number of different aspects of culture.  Otherwise, you just end up preaching to the converted.
