1 x loaded 1 Bitcoin Casascius coin: AUCTION STARTS TOMORROW 2021-10-11 ends Thu

[thoughtfan]

Hi folks,

Two things: First to let potentially interested folks know that coin is being auctioned by my brother on scarce.city. Edit: Auction  link: https://scarce.city/auctions/casascius-1btc-coin

Second is a question he has to anyone who may have cleaned these up in the past - would using Brasso or something (on the non-sticker side) help bring back the shine and make it look more attractive? I seem to recollect the blemish in the top of the B was there since I originally bought it from Mike but the scuffs and scratches probably originate from when I was carrying them round in my pocket trying to see if I could buy lunch in the caffe with them






Incidentally, this is one of the same coins I was talking about where I gave more background on them in this thread back in December. Then with the rapid rise, those who had been thinking of selling just held on tight - until now... There are two silver tens still to be sold - in scarce.city, here or elsewhere, depending on how this first experiment goes.

...and I've got heaps of peeled 1s and .5s if anyone would like to make an offer on some of those

Would recommend against cleaning a coin with any chemicals.
Best would be a can of compressed air.

Hi,
Quick update on this is that the auctioning of this item has been postponed for a couple of weeks. I will update you when I have a solid date from my brother of the auction time.

Thank you for your patience and your interest.

FYI, it is my brother, not me who is selling it although it was originally mine (bought from Mike).
