 I'm assuming you want to do this for the amount you have invested. |

1 bitcoin equals 325.13 US dollars today exchange wise. If you have $16 worth then you have .05 bitcoin about. So you need a physical bitcoin nickel.

Nonono I meant to buy American silver coins with bitcoins.
Anyways, physical bits don't have numismatic value :)

No, they're not. They're an ephemeral piece of processing output, assigned value simply because people choose to assign them value. There's about as much intrinsic value to a bitcoin as your six-year-old's fingerpaintings. It's not even fiat money - that, at least, has a government backing it. Bitcoin is only valuable because people say it is. Me? I don't think so. So, it has no value to me. |

So coins have value but Bitcoins do not, in short, right?
That's why I have been asking all along to get my bitcoins turned into real coins.

Ha! Well played, sir.  Tough task, though. Very darn few online retailers are trying bitcoins, and anything numismatic would be a bare-periphery thing for them. |

Bitcoins have lost something like 70% of their value since last December. Makes US dollars look good. |
