This is a 2011 series 1 Casascius coin, with mis-spelt hologram, that was sent to me and funded by Casascius in July 2012. Blockchain link: https://blockchain.info/address/1DWwK4D6rQzjkosEXtfKNgEkUi4vVYAbypPhotos(click for larger versions. imgur album with two photos)Description of ItemYou're bidding on exactly the coin shown in the photos. Note there is a small dark blemish on the edge of the coin, at approximately half-past-one on the side with the hologram. What might look like scratches on the "B" side of the coin actually form a straight line pattern that casascius designed the coins with. Auction timingAuction will end Thursday April 25th 21:00 GMT or 1 hour after the last valid bid was placed, whichever is later. Placing BidsYou can place your bids by posting in this thread the amount you are bidding in BTC. Please use increments of at least BTC 0.05. The highest valid bid at the time of auction ending wins the auction. Failure to pay invalidates the bid. PaymentNo escrow. I will post a payment address after the auction ends. You have 48 hours to pay. If you fail to pay your bid is cancelled and the poster of the next-highest bid get's a chance to pay (I will post this). ShippingI will be shipping with Japan Post's EMS. This involves some basic tracking which I will provide to you. According to the post office it will take from 4-7 business days. Insurance is optional, if insured I will declare it to have 10% over the BTC value of your bid in USD at the time of mailing, so as to cover for some potential rise in BTC whilst shipping. This costs you an additional 0.05 BTC. If uninsured I will declare it to have nominal value of 10 USD. In either case it will be declared to be a brass coin. More Details / Rules:- I can change the auction rules (not the payment/shipping stuff of course) if I deem that necessary to ensure an orlderly auction
- If shipping to a domestic address I will use kakidome or whatever the insured domestic version of EMS is
- If tracking service of Postal service says: "received" or "could not be delivered, needs to be picked up" or similar, it's on you: the coin is considered to be delivered at that point
- In case of trouble/dispute I am allowed to publicize the tracking number
- On request, I will publicize the tracking number here in the thread
- Upon receiving the coin(s), it would be nice if you posted that fact here.
With apologies to molecular for copying the gist of his auction format. Thank you.

I chose the auction end to be early Japan time on Friday.
Next week is the start of Golden Week holidays in Japan, so it's in the buyer's interest to get the payment and shipping info to me a.s.a.p. so that I can dispatch the coin as early as possible on Friday morning and avoid the holidays.
Thanks.

Melbustus - you are quite right, apologies for the confusion. The auction is still open.

You post was 10:09:13 PM, there are no more bids by 11:09:13 PM, so Melbustus is the winner.
