One coin to rule them all
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 Smiley I was like Shocked when I got my first MS70.

Hey there,

Just checking to see if any of your coins are available.

Thanks Smiley
Hi Tommy,

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+...
Had no idea actually, that's terrible.  Thanks for letting me know though.

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.
That's interesting.  Makes sense why the grades would go up in that case.  Is there anything published regarding that change?

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.

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

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  Huh
Pseudo anonymity no doubt.

Hello  Grin

Has the 6 been sold SgtSpike?
Hi funk!  The MS66 coin?  No it has not been sold...!

I don't know why I typed that, I meant "2011 ERR 1 BTC graded MS64 - 4 BTC"
Oh ok - nope, it seems that sale fell through (it was a trade that never happened and the other party stopped responding).  It is back up for sale though.

This is so bad that the 2011 are so dirty or not untouched, meaning they can still get worse over time (MS64 for ex).

Such beautiful coins, do you think ANACS would grade any pysical cryptocurrencies or just Casascius?
Thank you!  I believe they would grade any of them - they were very open to grading these Casascius coins, and as far as I know, I was the first one to inquire them about it.
