Title: [AUCTION] CASASCIUS 25 BTC, no hologram, excellent condition Post by: MXRider on March 24, 2018, 05:10:45 PM One empty 25 btc Casascius for sale. Pricing seems quite difficult, hence the auction format.
Front https://i.imgur.com/yMbP7O1.jpg https://i.imgur.com/NpIUQYk.jpg I'd say the coin is in excellent condition. There are no scuff marks or scratches. Back https://i.imgur.com/Q7tfPzh.jpg Hologram has been peeled and the coin emptied by me. The hologram does not come with the coin. I've had the coin since 2012. You can actually see some glue marks on the back of the coin if you look closely. If you want more pics, feel free to send me a PM. Starting price 0.4 BTC. Increments 0.05 BTC Auction ends 31st March 18:00 UTC. Coin is located in Finland. Buyer pays for shipping, buyer pays for escrow.

With the forks it has about 28 BTC worth on it. if you add in say 0.5 btc as the price for the coin peeled I just think it is crazy that its better to peel a coin than to sell it

OP, nice looking coin! Are you keeping the hologram or do you no longer have it? Reason I ask is it would definitely add to the value of this auction if the holo was included. Title: Re: [AUCTION] CASASCIUS 25 BTC, no hologram, excellent condition Post by: wheelz1200 on March 24, 2018, 07:14:35 PM This is a cleaner looking 25 than usual it seems. Most ive seen have some scuffs on it especually peeled ones, nice coin op
Title: Re: [AUCTION] CASASCIUS 25 BTC, no hologram, excellent condition Post by: MXRider on March 24, 2018, 08:48:13 PM I've kept the coin in a closed coin box for all these years.
Unfortunately I do not have the hologram anymore. Even if I did, I probably wouldn't include it. My real identity can easily be solved so I don't want my bitcoins or trades with bitcoins to be tracked. But that's just an excuse, I got rid of the hologram when I emptied the coin. Title: Re: [AUCTION] CASASCIUS 25 BTC, no hologram, excellent condition Post by: rakka on March 24, 2018, 10:28:14 PM Well ya shoulda put it up for auction before peeling it. Any premium is still a premium >:(

Well with what,, 14? 25BTC opened this year, unless you used a mixer I think it would be pretty easy for someone like Quickseller to figure out which one you owned. Maybe a little harder if you opened it last year as there were 82? opened in 2017 But I doubt if you opened it last year and held onto it so long but who knows Title: Re: [AUCTION] CASASCIUS 25 BTC, no hologram, excellent condition Post by: owlcatz on March 25, 2018, 12:05:08 AM I've kept the coin in a closed coin box for all these years.

That was when bitcoin was $400 though. Have to see how the auction goes. Beautiful coin good luck with the sale.

Wither way i think 1.5 is a stretch, with btc where it is.

I guess this is the second one recently, one more was sold recently and was pretty neat Title: Re: [AUCTION] CASASCIUS 25 BTC, no hologram, excellent condition Post by: MXRider on March 25, 2018, 08:02:09 AM Here is one without holo sold for 0.7 BTC although the condition was not as good.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3073418.0 I think 1.5 BTC is a bit excessive for an empty coin :) Even back in 2016.

Did you clean the coin or is that the only glue residue that was left from the peal ?

Title: Re: [AUCTION] CASASCIUS 25 BTC, no hologram, excellent condition Post by: MXRider on April 09, 2018, 06:35:13 PM The coin has been shipped and delivered. I'm currently waiting monkeynuts to release the funds from escrow.
Title: Re: [AUCTION] CASASCIUS 25 BTC, no hologram, excellent condition Post by: MXRider on April 09, 2018, 08:38:23 PM It seems that my forum account has been compromised.
Someone sent a PM from my account to monkeynuts saying that release address for the funds would need to be changed. I checked my PM outbox but the hacker must have deleted all the relevant sent PMs. The hacker then created a new account mxrider1 to handle all the future communications and claimed that my original account (the one I’m posting from at the moment) has been locked. I’ll publish all the PMs from the hacker later. One can clearly see that the language used is different from my previous messages and communications. At this point it’s still a bit unclear how this happened. I’ll post more info when and if I get any. Thank you monkeynuts for escrowing the deal and not releasing the funds to other than the original address that I gave with the tracking code. Title: Re: [AUCTION] CASASCIUS 25 BTC, no hologram, excellent condition Post by: monkeynuts on April 09, 2018, 09:47:24 PM Escrowed funds released
Title: Re: [AUCTION] CASASCIUS 25 BTC, no hologram, excellent condition Post by: MXRider on April 10, 2018, 12:01:08 AM Funds received, thank you.
I'm guessing the hacker lost the access to my forum account at some point. He then created user 'mxrider1' and tried to convince monkeynuts that the original account was hacked/locked. Some PMs from the hacker 'mxrider1' to monkeynuts: Hello monkeynuts Im MXRider i 've lost my account password due to a fucking virus that crypted all my files including my wallets please dont release any bitcoins until i get back to my account. This is urgent please reply to me. Thank you. and another one: Np you can verify that im MXRider: 1) I've asked you to change my btc address to an offline address cause online wallets are not safe and it was ending (as i remember) with: Muu 2) You told me in your last msg : Confirming address .... 3) I've sent you a msg asking you if IOTA Support really used you as an escrow and than you replied to me with an apologize cause you didn't include me in your escrow msg. 4) IOTA Support made a wrong calculation of the escrow amount and than after my correction he said i agree to the price. Lets me know if this is enough lol :D Also please accept my apologies monkeynuts i will make sure to send u a tip after all this ends. Cheers Info on the second message actually checks out. He has read my PM's and apparently had access to my account at some point around April 3rd. If you received a message from me just asking for a payment (no other info on the message), do not make the payment. I always send the tracking code/info about shipping on the same message with my btc address. Anyway, the redeemed 25btc coin has been sold and all ended well. The scams have come quite a long way from 2012-2013, when I was active at the forum. Big thanks to monkeynuts for professional escrow services. I would definitely recommend! |
