Are the scratches in the 7-8o'clock position on the capsule or coin?

Looks like someone washed the top half and didn't wipe off the water 

Almost a perfect fit for the "Ugly Cas" collection 

I will take some additional pictures for you. The condition is "decent" definitely not a flawless coin, but with a 2013 brass it doesn't really matter (either way a small premium).

Here is another picture of it. It does have some patina on it and some very small scratches. If I had to guess grade wise I would say maybe MS-65 (obviously it could be way different knowing ANACS). The patina doesn't hurt the grade, but the small scratches would.

Don't consider any other fork (at this time) other than Bcash, which places the coin value at 1.138. The others are essentially dead/dying very quickly.

Not trying to derail, but I fully agree with this. I'll pay the BCH premium, but not BTG - by the time I ever peeled this, if that was to happen, I suspect BTG would be long time no love.

Insane that these coins can sell for below actual value... I have never witnessed such an irrational market.

Bcash will likely be ~nothing, too. There have been airdrops, which have given >5% of BTC value and even went to ~nothing due to network problems etc.. So if you're not going to peel now, bcash etc. don't add much value. For the seller, seller could just peel and sell airdrops to get at least X amount of BTC. So no point to sell for less than X. Of course peeling and airdrop dumping is extra work and carries risks, too.

It's not likely that the seller or the buyer is going to peel this coin. If you believe that Bcash will likely be nothing to, then this coin is already fetching a decent premium.

If peeling value is over paid value, it "makes sense" to peel for instant profit. That ruins the coin, though...

Obviously, but as said that is not likely the case. There are more people that would rather bid on it and not peel it than vice versa. Why would someone in their right mind ruin it for 0.0x profit?

Cause it makes their other Casascius coins more valuable, and they already have an impressive collection.  
Buy them all, and start destroying them. Then auction the last 2 in existence.

These guys are just lucky I don't have the spare coin at the moment.

What you are talking about is a fantasy-utopia-collector scenario that won't happen. The prices would become ridiculous as the number of unpeeled coins per series was converging to zero. Heck, some people would probably not part with them for any (reasonable) amount.

These guys are just lucky I don't have the spare coin at the moment.

Watch out, mr. bill is lurking.

[bill gator]

I wouldn't exactly call it a utopia, because then I definitely wouldn't be able to get my hands on one. I'm already counting my pennies and hoping for a BTC price drop for an easy snag. There are almost certainly dozens of people with multiple coins that wouldn't part with their them. I was being quite facetious with that plan.

Watch out, mr. bill is lurking.

Please, mr. bill was my father. Call me gator.
