Title: Wanting to sell my 2 Funded Casascius physical coins V1 and V2
Post by: dreadwing on December 31, 2017, 06:57:33 PM
I have 2 physical coins that I purchased back in 2012 that have never been taken out of the package except for photos. Wanted to sell these and use an escrow service.

Where do I post these for auction and what is the range I should expect for each? I’ve been out of the scene for awhile and so need some feedback on best way to sell these rather than dealing with he eBay route.

I’ll post more pictures later.

Can you post some close up photos of the front? You'll probably get a lot of offers just by posting. However you can look back through the previous pages on the forum to see what they have sold for recently to get an idea on price. You should look for some plastic capsule cases to store them in to reduce the chance of them getting damaged.

You're right to avoid ebay as people have bought, redeemed and returned Casascius coins in the past - eBay and Paypal will not cover you in this situation.

Auctions work very well here at realizing market value.  Look at previous recent successful auctions for an idea on what information needs to be in the op etc.  

You will need better pictures, but you should expect 1.2 - 1.25 btc each coin in auction in my opinion.

Ouch.. they look rough.. if give you 1.1BTC each fella escrow with minerjones.
Low BALLING again! you can trust cunts like TMAN and LC to offer less than the face value!

@OP. Just peel em' for the BTC and BCH

So salty...

The current peel value of a 1 BTC Casascius coin is more than 1.22 BTC.

Here is an easy tool to check:
https://bitcore.cc/checker.php

This tool doesn't include all the forks/clams/etc or the amount would be higher. It credits the Bitcoin Diamond at 1:1 when it should be 10:1 so you have to multiply the Bitcoin Diamond amount listed by 10 to get an accurate calculation. You might also keep in mind that the Segwit2x fork is right around the corner with a current futures value of $270 each.

Use the firstbits shown on the coin to get the full address using like walletexplorer.com, then put the full address into the tool blazed posted to find out how much total is on the coin.

If you're interested in checking for some of the forks. There's probably like 10,000 more forks.

I made the mistake of posting my Skype address so a ton of people spamming me. Here are the other pics that I took earlier.

Since I am a new member I was not able to respond to any private messages or do much to respond on here. I purchased these 6 years ago and never sold because I liked the coins. I've been out of the scene for 6 years so was wanting some advice from the experts on here to help maximize profits and have these go to an actual collector.

Thank you to WritingG123 and Blazed for explaining the forks and that by default it is already worth more than 1.2 BTC plus the rarity of the coin.

Why would there be escrow?
Not my fault a couple people dont want me to intefere with their lowballing.

Be careful guys, it seems like there is someone trying to impersonate this user, I received the following message:

Hi this is dreadwing, i posted my physical bitcoins a bit a go and made the mistake of posting my Skype address so getting a ton of people trying to buy these but most seem like scammers.

I want to sell these but since I am new on here and this whole process, I do not want to so something stupid or get scammed out of my coins. I can only send 2 emails a day on here but if we can chat via some other means, that would help me get these posted the right way.

You seem to be a solid user so would really appreciate any help you can offer on selling these.

Thanks

I might not have noticed, except there was a message from the real dreadwings before that one.

Did you actually end up peeling it then? Shame if you did, as they are very easy to sell in pristine condition even if you ignore the inevitable lowballers. Only a few thousand of these coins were made, many were lost and redeemed already.

Now I look at the message again, starting to think it was the original poster who sent the private message on a different account because they were restricted, so apologies if that is the case.
