With BCH included, this is actually below face value. Congrats, folks, on setting a new low for Casascius premiums!

Nov 1 came and went. I may just sit on the coin. Not very fussy on sticking something so valuable in the mail. If anyone is interested in making a trip to the beautiful island of Newfoundland, you might be able to convince me to sell it to you in person  |

This coin is sold.
Mind if I ask the selling price? |
|

So a cas will hold btc/bch/btg and segwit 2x next month already. Not just btc.
Yeah, but so will paper wallets. Should we pay a $35,000 premium for those? |

interesting that premiums for casascius coins have remained mostly steady even with the rise in bitcoin value. will the trend continue post $1k usd remains to be seen. some would say this is already due to numismatic value but without pcgs or ngc gradings it maybe some time before crypto coins go mainstream if ever.
Just saying, 1BTC silvers were selling for >3 for a while... |

But hey, what do I know?
How do you define reasonable? What might the peril be? Stuck with a terribly shiny token for a few more years?  "Reasonable" is subjective; the peril is unrealized gains. Tinfoil is shiny -- but if someone offers me $50 for a piece of it, I'm not gonna hold out for $100. We all have different motivations, all I'm saying is that if you are hoping to maximize your dollar return, sitting on this coin isn't the way to do it. Best of luck with the sale  |

Can anyone point to any successful sales of high denomination coins like these in recent times? All I can see are examples that appear to linger for years on end.
I suspect that many holders of 10s are unwilling to accept a BTC price lower than what they paid for the coin. This means many are unwilling to let them go for less than 16-18. I also suspect that the phenomenon of Casascius coins holding their premiums in terms of BTC is over, and that sellers turn down any reasonable offers at their own peril. I expect BTC premiums to continue to drop. But hey, what do I know? |

Can you please clarify the start time, as UTC is not a time zone.......
"Although GMT and UTC share the same current time in practice, there is a basic difference between the two:
GMT is a time zone officially used in some European and African countries. The time can be displayed using both the 24-hour format (0 - 24) or the 12-hour format (1 - 12 am/pm).
"UTC is not a time zone, but a time standard that is the basis for civil time and time zones worldwide. This means that no country or territory officially uses UTC as a local time."
Huh. TIL. 00:00 GMT, UTC±00:00  |

There is nothing for sale in this thread |

I assume it's ungraded (to preserve proper chain of possession.) Interesting.
Yes, I have never graded a coin. ANACS grades cannot be trusted anyway. Serious purchasers know how to grade a coin by eye. When will this auction happen? Any set date?
00:00 UTC, November 1, 2017. |

Hi folks
I am planning to offload a coin via reserve auction. The auction will likely run for the entire month of November.
Why am I telling you about it now? Because I want to give everyone *plenty* of warning, and make sure nobody misses out.
WHY A RESERVE AUCTION?
Because I'd like to reserve the right to keep the coin if I'm not happy with the top bid. THIS DOES NOT MEAN THAT BIDS LOWER THAN RESERVE WILL BE REJECTED. IT MEANS THEY WILL BE ACCEPTED OR DECLINED AT MY DISCRETION.
More details and stuff to come in a couple weeks. Not many first-owner coins with PGP docs floating around, so this might be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the collector who has it all!

How about an original WoodCollector piece...the first ever made  Lol, UkCrypto sold his piece for a higher USD value than what he paid I can't even make fun of you folks anymore because it's obvious that none of you care what you spend money on  |

it just reminds me too much of when i was scammed
Lol, UkCrypto, is that you? Why the new account? |

Coin looks nice
1Ag6 -- could be better, IIRC gilt started at 1Ag4?
Shitty lasering on the holo
Will be surprised if you get 2.9 but good luck!
1Ag6 is the last batch of loaded coins made AFAIK (at least for silver 1BTCs?) - and many of them have a slightly offset hologram laser (id say 50% of them are about as offset as OP's). even with the value of BCH, hard to see this fetching >2.4BTC, and if it does i might have to sell another one of mine Hmm, weren't there a bunch of 1Ag* 1BTC silvers that didn't follow the usual scheme? Like 1AgN, etc? So much of this is lost to memory.. Every goldie I've seen starts with 1Ag4, 1Ag5, or 1Ag6. There are lots of all-silver singles with 1Ag(letter) addresses like the 0.1s and 0.5s Innnnnnnteresting |

0.5 BTC Silver, Series-2
I believe highest recorded sale price for one of these was 15 BTC

But when i see fiat buyers on ebay paying $40 for a satori coin that tells me they either have money to burn or its not an object
Really? It tells me that they operate multiple ebay accounts, so that they can buy their own coin when nobody else wants it, in order to create the appearance of a market. Go ahead and spend some time digging through completed Casascius auctions on ebay. Take a look at the bidders. They're mostly ****'d out, but there's enough info there to make it plainly obvious what's happening. You're fuckin nuts buying OR selling a Casascius on ebay. |

I would never peel any of them to preserve history, you can always find a buyer if $$ is needed.
Tell that to the guy who had to peel a 25 because he couldn't find a buyer at any price |
