I received one of these with my very first order from Mike.  I've thought about selling it over the years but now consider it part of my permanent collection.  This is a big piece of history, imho.


 I agree..They are a big piece of history for btc coins. I wonder how many were kept? Probably many were just discarded. That is why they are rare

Cool, I think I saw one on eBay a while back and asked the guy why it wasn't funded but had been peeled, his answer was along those lines but not in so much detail, so now it makes much more sense... Not even sure those made the encyclopedia, sweet! Cheesy

Up for sale is a Demo Casascius 2011 coin. Please PM me with offers..Thanks

I am selling this on behalf of another person who is not a member on the forum.

Escrow paid for by buyer.

About the DEMO coin

These are the first experimental coins made by Casascius. They were used to test the holograms to reveal the honeycomb pattern left behind, without ever being funded.

The coins can be identified by looking up the public key on a peeled, seemingly ‘pre-funded’ coin. If no BTC has ever been in the address, then it is possibly a demo coin. Currently, demo coins are only known to exist in brass 1 BTC form.

Casascius sold these coins to prior buyers as extras. On a few occasions, buyers who ordered Casascius coins
had the option to also buy some ‘demo’ coins along with them.

While no numbers relating to these coins exist, it is no doubt that they are extremely rare compared to the mintages of normal Casascius coins. It has been suggested that these coins may be an effective way to invest in the collectable value of Casascius coins without exposure to BTC price fluctuations.

A coin just like this was recently listed for $8000 on Ebay...It recently sold for a best offer!
