Lealana .1 BTC Silver MS-68 [Ends 7/22 7:30 PM EST][Very High Grade]

[TheAnalogKid]

I'll pop it up to 0.32 and see where it goes. 

[Mitchell]

0.33. I really want a graded coin for my collection. I have none of them and I can't allow that.

[Panthers52]

0.33.

^^^this is the current high bid.

Less then 8 minutes remaining. However if anyone else bids then the end time will be extended by an additional 15 minutes.

[Mitchell]

Pretty sure the auction is over.

[Hellot]

Pretty sure the auction is over.

Just a heads up, I was unable to load bitcointalk for the last 15 minutes from multiple locations.  So someone who wanted to bid might not have been able to.

Ah man. Why does this happen when I'm bidding on something and I should be sleeping already (2:05AM over here).

The same happened with me. This means that I am going to have to take the loss, as I took the risk associated with having an auction.

I have more then one MS68 lealana tenth, so if someone really wanted to buy one then can PM me and we can try to work something out. The price would be somewhat above my reserve price though.

I am about to send you a PM.

This is the winning bidder. Congratulations on the awesome deal

Stupid Chick fil a kept me at work when all this bidding took place haha. Congrats Mitchell!

[TheAnalogKid]

Congrats Mitchell... you'll enjoy this coin, it's a very pretty piece in MS-68, and I'm sure Panthers will miss it...

I somehow read this as a casascius auction and was getting desperate when I saw the B.I.N price. Anyway, it sold for a great price (on Mitchell's end) but I was wondering if this coin was funded by the buyer or creator?
I know it's got the black text, but it could have been part of one of smoothie's many auctions and then funded by the buyer before shipping.
That also leads onto Hellot's point where the market has become so saturated with Lealana coins (there's an auction almost bi-weekly) that demand and price have dropped a lot.
Anyway, nice coin and good deal Mitchell

[Mitchell]

I'm very happy that I won this coin. It's my first Silver Lealana (the one I have is brass) and my first graded coin.

I'm glad you did too! It'll be nice to add to your collection. I have a 1 Litecoin Lealana MS-66 and it's my favorite.

I'll bump it to 0.3BTC, maybe it'll spur some folks to at least get to your reserve price...

^^this is the current high bid.

I thought for sure this would be worth much more then .3 

One hour remaining

I believe it is and I would happily pay your reserve if I had the coin right now.  Keep in mind that smoothie is still selling these by the roll and there is an auction for a roll right now in this forum.  These are in pristine condition and should grade well.  Also consider that smoothie has been aggressively selling lately to take advantage of the low bitcoin price to maximize his bits and you will understand that many of us hold a lot of smoothie coins at this point and the market here is getting saturated.  Judging by the recent ANACS grading we have seen, I am sure I have at least a dozen MS68 coins in my collection.  But I would happily take more because I love the smoothinator.  In short your timing just isn't very good.

That bolded word/name gave me a chuckle.

I also call you "smoovie" when I say your name out loud.  I make up nicknames for everyone and I think I get this behavior from growing up watching Seinfeld.  Glad you got a chuckle!

Guys what I received today? Exactly, my Lealana MS-68! The coin looks amazing and I can see why it was graded this high. The packaging of the coin was perfect. The coin was put bubblewrapped and put inside a bubblewrap envelope. Furthermore it only took four work days (six days in total) to arrive here, because Panthers52 paid extra for express shipping so that I would receive my coin before going on vacation. I still appreciate that mate.

[Panthers52]

I am glad your coin was quickly received

Be sure to take care of her
