Title: Auction for a 20 CHF gold coin until block 100,000 ! Post by: grondilu on December 11, 2010, 06:24:52 AM After a few successful sellings of 1g mini gold bars, I now start the first ever gold coin auction on this forum.
So, this is a standard 20 CHF (swiss franc) gold coin. See internet for details about this coin. No starting price. Price will include postal fees to wherever in the world. It will be a standard letter. I will just hide carefully the coin into the letter. It should be fine. Auction will end at block number 100,000. At this time, I will lock this thread and thus close the auction. I might close it a bit earlier and end the auction on IRC, though. DO NOT BID IF YOU DON'T REALLY INTEND TO BUY THE COIN. I will require paiement before sending it anyway, so there is no point making fake bids. Do not PM to make your bid. Just post it in this thread. Have fun ! http://grondilu.freeshell.org/20CHFgold1.jpg http://grondilu.freeshell.org/20CHFgold2.jpg Title: Re: Auction for a 20 CHF gold coin until block 100,000 !

Post by: grondilu on December 11, 2010, 09:17:18 AM Could you tell us, from which country are you sending this coin and do you know the weight of the coin in gramms ? From France. All informations about the coin can be found on the web. The swiss 20 CHF gold coin is quite famous. It has the same gold value and purity as the french napoleon.

My first gold auction was concluded on block 90,000 if I remember well. Log can be found on this very forum. Before this I sold some silver coins. I guess it was in the beginning of october.

Brocktice still leads at 1270 BTC. Anyone at 1280 ? It seems there is not much interest for this auction anymore, so I won't end this one on IRC unless someone outbids brocktice.
