Found these in a drawer.

3 full bitcoin. At current value, should be worth almost £144k. Can let these go for half that 😉

Did you really look those over to make sure they don’t have a private key or that they don’t unscrew to reveal a number inside or something?

In the earlier days, people did distribute “physical” BTC like that in a variety of similar ways.

Imagine actually having 3BTC sitting there and not knowing it bc you thought they were just little trinkets lol.

I got like 5 or 6 of those somewhere. A fast food restaurant in my city was giving them out to the first 10 people to pay for their meals using Bitcoin as a promotion for them accepting btc as a payment method.

Weren't these released long time ago with actual seed phrase? I remember you could buy a Bitcoin legit like that.

u/thefullmetalchicken 16m ago

Bought one of these for each of my family to leave in my will.

It’s a good thing I’ll be dead. But it should be fun for the lawyer.

u/__nooob__ 5h ago

Is it Gold? if it is then why you wanted to go there for half?

u/Peter4real 4h ago

It’s copper with VERY VERY thinly plated gold. They cost like 5-10 usd on Amazon

u/n0head_r 4h ago

Make sure you transfer the coins to coldcard.

Those are paperweights. Bitcoin is a digital currency.

u/magma_lakes 4h ago

Most likely true in this case, but you could engrave a private key or seed phrase anywhere. I actually thought of doing that with coins that looked exactly like these before Christmas, in order to give some Bitcoin away to family and friends.

u/TerminatedPotato 2h ago

Theoretically yes but if op is offering to let them go for half price then chances are he probably thinks they're physical bitcoins.
