Cardsmiths Currency Series 4

[zeus22]

Went through a few pages and can't find any chatter on this release. Kinda surprising as all SKU's seem to be sold out and box prices on ebay and other retailers are more than 50% increased than initial release just a couple months ago.
Anyone interested and/or opening these boxes?

I opened some. Not stunning. I think a lot of their draw is that you're gambling on opening a crypto redemption.

Absolutely - that was my draw to it as well at first. Very few $100 boxes out there with a chance at a $80k card.

#'d singles are selling very well though. Opened 10 megas with one #'d card per box and pretty well broke even. Still have plenty that are grading worthy.

No redemption card for me, but did pull a multi-case hit "Bigfoot Cryptoid" card that seems to be selling in the $350-$500 range. From what I discovered on Reddit, these are more rare than the Onyx 1:1 cards

Seems odd to me there has never been media attention or even internet attention brought to someone who pulled a redemption worth real money so I've passed. People usually sell them as they end up being a couple hundred or less, which at that point there is similar-priced boxes you can get similar value hits. Sure it can go up but that's basically the same as prospecting rookies.

I also feel some of the card values are artificial as the only product for Cardsmiths that does sell out is the Currency. If people really enjoyed Cardsmiths designs and liked the look the only popular ones wouldn't be the ones with potential crypto redemptions lol

There are several post on collectors pulling a Full Bitcoin from Cardsmiths Products. Here are a few I found looking briefly:

I actually like the art and bought a few. Even though from the Currency series, personally I find that the best artwork was Series 2 / 3
