Hello I'm rather new here, but I'm looking to sell my 5BTC 2012 Casascius S1 coin.  It has not been graded, but it also hasn't left the sleeve I got it in in 3 years.  It's in immaculate condition and I would have taken it out for the photos, but then I couldn't claim I'd left it in the sleeve for 3 years.

I'm not sure what the going rate is on these coins, so I guess I'll start the bidding at 12BTC and see where it goes from there?

the coins are in the same spots, just flipped over.

the smudges or whatever are on the sleeve, not the coin itself.  like I said I haven't taken it out of that sleeve or handled it with bare hands.

this exchange will be escrowed

I also have 2 x Series 2 2011 1BTC coins I may part with, again not graded and I'm unsure of price, but in good condition.  They were funded in 2012.  I purchased these off sgornick in person at an IHOP.  I'm also active on twitter(I'll share my profile on PM request) and have appeared on the World Crypto Network a couple times for various things if anyone is unsure to trust a new poster.

I would suggest you take some more pictures with your forum username and date in and accept escrow.

Absolutely plan on doing escrow, thanks for the tip!

No problem, the new pictures will also definitely help.

Also if you want to auction here's a link to the auction section: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=73.0

I don't necessarily care if it's an auction or not, I really only did that because I'm not sure what the going rate is on these coins. Also, any tips on embedding the pictures?

Ah ok no worries. With the pictures if you insert the link between img tags (clink on the photo frame top left above the winking smiley within the text console box) then the image will show rather than a link.

For example this is your first picture, I used [im g width=500] in front of the link to reduce picture size to 500 px width:

[im g width=500]http://i65.tinypic.com/2zggq5g.jpg[/img]

No space between m and g though.

hmmm :| embed isn't working for me I was already doing that, but I guess I'm stuck with links :(

just upload your pics here: http://en.directupload.net/

Use the "hotlink" link and paste it in between [img ] [ /img] (without the spaces)

I don't know why this isn't working for me lol.

Images are disabled for new accounts, I remembered this thread  - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1172918.0

Looks like you'll just have to post the links sorry.

no big deal, the links are posted.

Perfect thank you, good luck with your sales.

I have embedded the pictures for you below :):
