[SOLD] 100 BTC Casascius unfunded

[Eodguy149]

I am looking to sell my 100BTC Casascius bar. These were never loaded with BTC.

There were only 8 made that were non loaded.

To comfortably sell the 100's non loaded non 2FA as not to confuse folks, which was never done before, Mike brainstormed and came up with the idea to add a zero btc holo, place it upside down, and place a small red dot over the prefix. The hologram actually says zero btc if you look closely.

There are not many Casascius bars that come up for sale so don't miss your chance to own one.

The picture below is pulled from google, I will be getting a picture of my exact bar in the next few days when I can take a trip to where it is stored. Feel free to post or PM questions or offers.

I don't know of any that have been sold on bitcointalk. The bars on Ebay were sold and that seller does not have any more that will be sold from my understanding 

[yugo23]

Have there been other sales recently??

I know there were 2 on ebay a while back, but I do not think they sold.
They were priced around $2000. 

I don't understand, why would it be sold 2k$? What is the point of buying that at such a price?

I believe miffman is selling one as well.  These bars were originally acquired by bitguy101 last year I believe direct from Casascius.  These are indeed very rare.  They are given their own page and mentioned in the upcoming Encyclopedia.

Eodguy149...any idea of price you're looking for?

Correct, I have some provenance that can be included, he got them directly from Mike as you said.

I'm not exactly sure on a price yet but I am open to offers.   

[miffman]

There has been one of these sold here for sure...not mine though  can't remember who had one, but I'm sure there was a sale.

what are you asking for the bar?

I haven't settled on an exact price yet, there aren't a ton of public sales. Feel free to make an offer and we can go from there

I will give you 500 US for it?

Been lopoking for one for a while. Had the chance to buy one for 300 but declined a year ago.

[mindtrip]

I can offer $525

I doubt anyone was selling one of these for 300 ... maybe a redeemed 100BTC bar at that price ?

I know bitguy did not sell any of these any where near that low, and he had them all to sell. I traded for a few from him as soon as he got them.

Only 12 total existed of unfunded 100's. 8 like this, and 4 that were 2FA variants

(and there was also 1 1000BTC bar that was unfunded as well)

[Poloherb]

$600

[bithalo]

$650

[Poloherb]

700$

[mindtrip]

$750

[Michail1]

$775  (Just to get in on the thread)

Of course this isn't firm and I want to see actual pictures.   I am not interested if removed from plastic, fingerprints, scratches, dings, and obviously if the sticker is removed.

[gravitate]

I concur with Michail but offer 900

[wheelz1200]

thinking of putting a price on it, but wondering why the price bidding is lower than a bought "void" .5BTC brass coin....just dont know how to value this with not many sales.

watching for now

Good question.  There 'may' have been around 12 void coins made, but of them, there are likely fewer still around that didnt get lost, thrown out, etc.  Maybe 6 left, give or take.

There were 8 of these bars made, all of which likely still remain intact, due to the fact they're unfunded and they were made about a year or so ago.

They're both very rare items and difficult to price without other previous sales.  But for reference, bitguy101 was selling his remaining non 2FA bars for about $1699 on ebay, and they all sold.  The rarer 2FA bar (only 4 made) sold for $1999 each.

Yes, about 2+ months ago.
The ones on ebay were $1500 and $1600.   They did not sell on ebay.  Seller did sell them privately, but don't know the amount, and I did offer significantly less.  (The confusion people have is ebay drones might actually think they are funded and overbid.)

I don't understand, why would it be sold 2k$? What is the point of buying that at such a price? 

There isn't a point.  It's just a high priced piggy bank in which you might as well get a bearer bar since these say 100BTC on them.  You wouldn't want to put more or less since it indicates 100BTC, although I doubt anyone would even put any coins into it.  So, it's a piggy bank that no one would actually use.

I concur with Michail but offer 900

I would up my offer, but honestly, that is what I offered on the ebay coins.  So, without this being an auction and can't see the bar yet, I will not offer more.

More void coins made than bars.   People like coins better since they can be graded (encased).  No one really wants an unfunded 100BTC bar since they nearly have to put 100BTC in it to be called funded.  Many reasons.   VOID coins were made public and fewer people know about the bars.  Problem with pricing on the bars is that only one person got them so no real public sales.  One buyer having all of one thing means they are pretty much worthless and priceless.  He is/was smart to sell off to various people as it puts value into as being obtainable.   Various other reasons.
