Nice haul! That "heart" is a beauty, how did you get them to add the word "Heart" to the title? Also, is the box how they packaged the coins that were returned to you?
Thanks.
They are the boxes ANACS use to return coins. They have 1 size for around a dozen coins, and another longer one for 2 dozen

Yep the info you have been given so far is good. Goat or ZT I seem to recall chainsaw had a redeemed 1k coin or bar Also bayareacoins had a redeemed 500 bar he was selling That link posted for the 100 bar is one of the few 100 bars that never got funded. So hologram still in tact. 12 of these in total, split between standard and 2fa. That seller is bitguy101. I did have one of those spare myself, but it's currently reserved. I can let you know if that doesn't work out. Finally .... Just like those never funded 100 bars .... There is just 1 never funded 1000 bar. And I have it not planning on selling, but everyone has a price I suppose. Feel free to make me an offer I couldn't refuse

I should also let everyone know. I have a few of the 1oz 1 seat coins. Just had 2 graded that have been given MS69 by ANACS .... So the quality of mint and assembly is also there
That's awesome. I haven't heard of anyone getting any of the minted seats graded before. Be sure to post some pics. 4908292 and 4908293. ANACS imaged , just waiting for them to be made live on The ANACS website.

PMd Miff, Blazed and Analog I have pulled the shipment due to be sent to ANACS today, but will hopefully be looking to send tomorrow (with or without them) Also looking at getting a few more 5's available from my source. Any other interest PM me Thread Hijack over. Deal agreed for 2 series 2 5's ungraded (not to Miffman, so I guess he is still looking). 2 more have gone to be graded, and are likely to be sold when they get back at the start of July.

Took, where does the Holo go on that 20KG 'loose change' coin ?! . Looks like a novelty coin to me. Even Bithalo wouldnt want that one, if you couldnt make it into a wallet. Did I hear my name mentioned? I am kind of a nut...I have an addiction in collecting all crypto wallets. Its a shared addiction halo

While looking through my stock, I had a funny idea, and that was to find a coin with my username on the hologram. Well, there are several, but there's one I'd be particularly interested in: 16 qwkrk8 2moBR27sbWYW8hbyAPFUd1vV37 (second part completes the address) This coin must be in circulation somewhere, so if anyone could find that -> PM I have had a look through my coins, and spreadsheets of coins I have held / sold, and its not passed by here. Looks like its a series 2 2011 brass coin ? Good luck with the search !

Just use a reputable escrow ... and a reputable buyer ... that is the only realistic choice here
1. Buyer sends BTC to escrow 2. Escrow confirms reciept of BTC 3. You send coin to buyer 4. Buyer looks at coin
If Happy Buyer 5. Buyer keeps coin 6. Buyer tells escrow he is happy 7. Escrow sends you BTC
If Unhappy buyer 5. Buyer says he isnt happy 6. Buyer returns coin 7. Seller gets coin and confirms to escrow 8. Escrow returns BTC to buyer
Any shit / disputes, escrow acts as arbitter (but why would there be any). Use insured / registered post on every shipment. Take pics / vids of packaging up prior to any shipping. Belt and braces.
Simples.
It is clear that there isnt the required level of trust for you as a seller, or for the coin from the photos. If you are serious about selling this coin, you have to decide to trust somebody. Its a shame you are not located near any other coiner that could give a first hand account, without the coin needing to go anywhere.
In addition to gravitate, I have had coins pass through my gloved hands that have showed more honeycombed patterns than the usual. Unsure why, but they werent tampered with. Also, as someone else in the thread has said, certain levels of light, or certin angles of viewing highlight the pattern. I dont have any to hand myself, or if I do they are ANACS slabbed
My best guess is that its either deterioration over time, or its not quite full adhesion at assembly.
Either way, without escrow, I personally have no interest in this coin. I doubt anyone will pay upfront for this coin. You need to meet folks half way here, or have a level of trust built up over time that dicates that protection isnt required.

The 5BTCs were Nickel, rather than brass, all 2012
Series 1, with the same 'printed on' error hologram, as the 2011 series 1 error 1 BTC Series 2, with the same 'windowed' hologram, as the 2011 series 2 1 BTC (no error)
I am sending a couple of series 2 5's to the graders today (turnaround time at ANACS is currently 3 - 4 weeks). These are for a friend of mine, but I know they will be looking to sell once returned. If you are still looking when they get back from ANACS, I will give you a shout.

What is actual market price for a 2011 brass coin serie 2 (no error) funded by Mike early 2012 ?
Depends on condition (mint and stored in an airtite since purchase or handled ?), if graded or not (and if so what grade they got). Give a bit more info, and should be able to give you a price range Whilst 2011 s2 coins are fewer in number than the 2011 s1's, they dont command the same premium

It might even be that collectors favorite some rare pieces of redeemed coins more than filled coins - because if they are mainly interested in numismatic = rare value, it might be better to avoid the bitcoin price volatily, particularly for 500 or 1000 BTC pieces.
That brings to mind... When you ordered casascius coins you had the option to also buy some "demo" coins along with them. Those were already peeled but had never before been loaded, AFAIK. Hand-peeled by casascius, that is Here's two 2011-error-demo-coins, possibly a lot rarer than the regular 2011-errors Unfortunately, because of the peeling, you don't really see the spelling error. Looking to sell or trade 1 of them ?
