[5 mins left] 2013 Casascius 0.5 BTC Brass Half Bitcoin - Starts @ Face Value!

[Zepher]

Up for auction is a 2013 Casascius 0.5 BTC Brass Half. This coin is loaded and in better than just good condition. This is not a perfect coin, there are some very slight marks on the coin near the right hand side of the 'B' as can be seen in the last picture. It is extremely minimal as you can see in the pictures. This coin is very shiny, and has minimal to no tarnishing. It has been looked after. The hologram is perfect, I apologise for the terrible pictures of the holo. This is a great coin to send to ANACS, it will potentially grade well...

Edit: Added another picture of the hologram.

Edit 2: The word "potentially" has been added to the OP. Please note that you are bidding on an ungraded brass coin. I have tried to describe the coin as best I can and photo's with different light conditions.
I am being asked what grade this will get when sent to ANACS. I do not know exactly, which is why I have not stated ~MS67/8/9 or the like.
You are buying the coin seen in the pictures. Please make your own judgement with the information I have provided about the coin, and the pictures above. Thanks

Thanks, coin@coin

This is one of the best brass halfs that I currently hold, if not the best.
Again, it is not perfect and has some very slight marks on the top right of the B, but this is a very nice coin.

0.75 BTC
