[Auction] extremely rare Jinn Physical Bitcoin - ends Saturday (1/14) 19:00 EST

[Pistachio]

Up for auction is an extremely rare Jinn Physical Bitcoin (unfunded) with certificate pictured below. I have never seen one for sale before and I doubt there will be another anytime soon.

Auction format
Starting bid: 0.5BTC
Bidding increments: 0.05BTC
Final bids: each bid extends the auction by 5 minutes from the last bid.
Ending time: Saturday January 14 at 19:00 EST / 24:00 UTC  
Buy it Now: 4BTC (escrow required) minerjones , Blazed or other trusted escrow must confirm receipt of funds before the auction is ended early with a BIN.

BONUS: To encourage early bids, I am offering two additional mystery physical bitcoins for free if the bids go high enough or if someone uses the BIN. Both coins are rather obscure and I have not seen them for sale recently on the forums. I will post pictures and info if the threshold is met.

Escrow is always accepted and encouraged. Buyer pays any escrow fees.
Shipping is free with USPS tracking worldwide from USA. Other shipping options (UPS, Fedex, DHL) are available at actual cost.

Well,
that excalated quickly...



is that one coin or more than one(set)

Is this funded?  I believe his first ones were with 1B.  Mine is not, and based on the prefix shown on the COA, I'm guessing this one isnt.

The auction is for only one coin, #5. If you look at the full sized pictures, you can see the custom hologram is quite nice and specific to this coin.

No,  this coin is not funded. I should have stated that earlier. If anyone who bid was under the impression this coin is funded, you are welcome to retract your bids. I would be very leery of someone selling a funded Jinn Physical Bitcoin anyway given the small number out there, the hand painted number to connect the coin to the certificate, and the lack of a track record from the manufacture.

well aware - this is a museum piece... not a wallet

Glad to hear it. I updated the OP to reflect that this is an unfunded coin. To encourage early bidders, I am setting the following thresholds to unlock the bonus coins.

If the high bid is greater than 1.55BTC, then the winner can pick one of the two bonus coins.
If the high bid is greater than 2.05BTC, then the winner gets both bonus coins.

I will post photos of the mystery coins if the high bid goes above 1.55BTC. Both mystery coins are listed in the Encyclopedia of Physical Bitcoins and Crpto-Currencies. They both date from 2014 and come unfunded.

Nice! I've seen the cold coin around and always wanted one, but they were pricey at the time. It's a pretty good incentive
