[wts] casascius graded ms 63 error with unusual first bits

[dozerz]

for sale is a casascius ms 63 2011 error coin.

note the first bits are 1auUXikoo which is unusual as mike caldwell reserved the 1au prefix for the silver based gold plated coins and here it is on a 2011 error.

pm me with offers, i cant offer escrow as need some btc fast so am a motivated seller if you can meet my price. will include express tracked postage to the location of your choice.

Maybe it's just the lighting but that looks unusually clean for a 2011.  I have higher grades than this that look much worse.  When was this graded by ANACS?

Sounds like a rarity, has any of these been sold previously just to have a grasp on the price?

I'm pretty sure Blazed sold one recently, not sure what the sale price was.  Owlcatz has an MS-65 listed for 2.60 BTC https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1578026.0

Since dozerz is motivated someone might be able to pick up a great deal on this.  I've bought a Casascius from him in the past and it went very well, FWIW.

Honestly, it looks nicer than my 65, at least from the pics anyhow. When was it graded btw? Mine was graded a month ago. Thanks.

I've bought and sold these (Cas 1 BTC brass w/ Error) at prices between 1.5 and 3 BTC. They used to sell at 4-5+ BTC.

graded about 12 months ago and yes i was surprised at the grade, coin has some great luster for a copper strike.
