Title: [WTS] Casascius Silver + gold 10 BTC with certificate from Mike Caldwell
Post by: PirateHatForTea on November 19, 2018, 03:03:13 PM
For sale is a mint condition silver casascius 10BTC with gold B. These don't come up for sale very often these days, and are definitely my favorite of all the casascius coins.

I'm the second owner, comes with a certificate given to the first owner, signed by like Caldwell.

Considering serious offers.

Nice coin indeed. Where's this located?

I think you shouldn't have any problem moving this beauty!! :D

I'd guess it's quite the contrary! $50k value inside + $10k's of premium.. Not something I'd be comfortable shipping around. It's a bit of work to do a $50k deal securely etc.

What country is this located in and are you comfortable shipping it?

I thought 10 BTC was 10 BTC? Why would shipping be an issue now and not before?  :D

It's located in Australia.

I don't currently have a solution for shipping it, and would not be comfortable doing so unless I could find a sensible way that included full insurance. I plan to speak to some art and collectible dealers and see whether there's an unknown world of high value couriers that I can tap into. Otherwise in the worst case I am comfortable delivering it myself, worldwide - but would still need to ensure I took sensible precautions regarding personal safety.

In the US many police stations allow you to use their facility for safe trading.  Ive done it for collectables here multiple times.  Worth the safety for all and what place could be safer  :P

Big lol @ having government funded entities look after you while you trade anti government currency coins... checkmate tax paying citizens. :D

I'm interested and am just consulting to find what the consensus is on a fair current offer to make on it.

If accepted to include delivery in person to Europe, or if you preferred the States in Feb or March.

They dont oversee the transaction, ive done it multiple times.  Definately safer this way for something in the range of what this coin is worth.

Since a few people have asked, I can confirm that the digital certificate of authenticity does include the public key, or rather the shortbits version that appears on the coin.

I think it would make an interesting experiment to buy this with USD and see how it fares over the next 4 years.

We both had offers from another serious collector to sell for higher or in my case to flip the coin, I've never sold any of the coins that I've bought but it does show a healthy demand for these rarer Casascius beauties & also values this one at > 16 BTC presently including world wide hand delivery.

Congrats gents! Beautiful coin and I too appreciate the transparency throughout the entire process as others have pointed out. Happy Holidays to all!
