The Casascius 1oz 10BTC Silver Round (w/ Gold B)

you should've made it with 10x the gold of the 100BTC bar.

It has an appeal for being cheap: it's a plausible way for someone to buy 1000 BTC for credit card but still be buying a tangible good, for the lowest possible premium.

Increasing the gold content would drive up the price.

I am getting more inquiries about the 1000 BTC gold coin idea.  I discussed it with the factory who did my silver coins.  I might seriously be able to do it for $200 over spot price (of both BTC and gold), on a fully-refundable-deposit pre-order basis.  It costs a lot to do a small run of custom gold coins, but at that price, it's also not ridiculous given the total price of the item.

I just realised that you're essentially selling Bitcoins for as low as a third of the price currently being asked on the exchanges.

I'm surprised people aren't buying them purely to sell the Bitcoins on the exchanges - pretty be damned!

How did you determine this?  It looks to me like he is charging a 13.5% markup over the price on the exchanges.

My mistake.  I just realised that your website only denotes prices in Bitcoins and not in $.

I just got word that the bar you see in the picture has just been bought through MemoryDealers.  Which means it's time to whip up more.

Casascius I think you have enough different items to offer a whole kit of your coins, minus the 1000 bar of course.

Im guessing you have a laser etcher now too ?  the old mouse wheel should be turning good now.. Smiley


Love your products brother...

I am already selling a blank collector's bar on my website.  All this is, is the blank bar, with a lasered-on denomination and hologram.

Buy my bar, and I will add a hologram and any denomination you want.  However, you will need to send me the BTC equal to the denomination and I will pre-load it, as it counts as a valid bar and I can't have them floating around unloaded.  (I reserve the right to charge for the lasering, but at this point, I will do it for free with purchase of the bar).

(While I am at it, I can laser just about anything else - for example, if a 50 BTC bar were gifted from bosses to employees for Christmas, it could say "50 BTC from all of us at..." and a company logo).

How many ounces of gold is this?
It's gold plated.

Likely in the micrograms.

Is that 100% real gold? Cheesy

Real gold plated.  And the bitcoins are 100% real.

I would do a solid gold coin or gold bar if provided the coin or bar in the right dimensions.  The mint doing my silver coins would also probably do gold coins but I would have to do them in a quantity that made economic sense... which is probably going to be unlikely.  I suppose I could do it if I merely intended to hold the gold, but that would be a lot of gold.
