Topic: [WTS] 2011 & 2013 1 BTC Casascius coins (Read 10134 times)
Updated with sold coins. Only have two left now...!
No nothing was published. Grades just went up overnight...
Interesting that people were able to figure out what the difference was from then.Both blazed and I had rolls to grade at pretty much the same time. The majority of the coins in the rolls all graded higher than previous gradings. So it wasn't subtle!
The good old days... We got some nice prices for those coins because we thought it was a fluke! I freaked when I saw an MS-69 for the firs time....
Indeed
I was like 
when I got my first MS70.

Hey there,
Just checking to see if any of your coins are available.
Thanks
Hi Tommy,Just checking to see if any of your coins are available.
Thanks
I'm about 6 months late, but yes, they are still available.
Amazing how ANACS sorta screwed us... After seeing you post graded coins I figured out the forms and started getting some graded also. I am sure you already know you could regrade all of those coins and likely get MS-67+...
Yep.. About 1.5 years back MS-67 was the top grade a Casascius Silver would get...period. Then all of the sudden ANACS started handing out 68/69 and very rarely 70. I have personally resubmitted 50+ coins that were "older" grades and every single one went up 1-3 grades. I will say MS-70 is still very rare so at least they are not just handing that grade out often.
Didn't this shift in grades have something to do with ANACS changing their criteria to no longer consider the sticker/holo as part of the coin? As in originally they would apply grading rules to the assembly as a whole (both the metal and the holo), but now they ignore the holo and only "grade" the metal portion. Justification being that the metal is the actual coin or token, the sticker is merely an application.

The serial number on the back of the coins give some indication of how early or late the coins were graded.
I have some from the first months as well, and have elected to keep them in there or original grading, especially as the community has begun to understood that all grades are not created equal in the world of casascius.
Some good looking coins in there, good luck on your sales!
I think one or two of mine are still from the very first time anyone graded them (I was the first to send any in to ANACS) so I think that's kind of special. Will probably want to keep those ones in the original cases at least.I have some from the first months as well, and have elected to keep them in there or original grading, especially as the community has begun to understood that all grades are not created equal in the world of casascius.

EDIT: I guess it's just one - I had already listed that as a feature of the coin!

Good you did not fall for his ridiculous scam.
I was about to post on here defending SgtSpike, as I can vouch for him.
But then I looked closer SqtSPike.....
What is it with this "community" and the attraction to it for fraudsters and cons
Pseudo anonymity no doubt.
