Honest advice here: lower your starting bid or you might as well close the auction right now

Good luck!

Great coin you have there.

However, I don’t see why you would cover the CoA, as it’s not exposing any private info. In addition, lowering the starting bid like suggested above might help.

Good luck with the sale, nice piece as I said.

I will never send private messages with payment requests for my auctions. I only communicate transparently via the forum (not Telegram, Discord, Skype & others). Please be wary of scammers.

Because you have edited the images there is no way to verify funding you should correct that. Last one auctioned here sold for 1.105 see link you could reasonably expect to only get 1.1 to 1.15 sorry about that but GLWS.

I paid 1.4 BTC for the coin directly from https://titanbtc.com some years ago, I'm not selling it for less than 1.5 BTC


Having in mind all your comments:
Bid starts at 1.5 BTC now 1.2 BTC
Bid increment by 0.01 BTC 0.002 BTC

Good luck!

What would you suggest having in mind the following points?:
- I purchased the coin at 1.329 BTC in https://titanbtc.com some years ago (2015-03-16 19:16:14).
- This coin is also loaded with BTC+BCH+BSV because the bitcoin was deposited before those forks where born.
- This is a collectible with its original certificate in perfect conditions and will have the balance for all subsecuent forks.
You can see the current balance of the coin here: https://www.blockchain.com/btc/address/1HgGzGw1bngHKV88u3RoyHqLZgU3gg576o

You won't sell it if you hold out for 1.5. Goldines are not that rare or valued as much by collectors as Casascius coins. You need to realize the auction market does not care what you paid. In fiat you paid about $375 and can now sell for 1.1 or about $12,000. That is a nice profit. But feel free to hold on to the coin.

First of all, congratulations with what I guess is your best investment ever! If you paid $375 for it the face value alone today is over $ 12,000, which is a ROI of 3,000%!! Shocked

As much as we would like to see it, premiums on our beloved crypto coins are not calculated in BTC but in USD. Everybody who has been active in the physical coin environment has noticed this the last couple of years. I myself have paid on several occasions for over 2 BTC for a 1 BTC coin (about 3 years ago), hell, I even paid over 3 BTC for a gold Kialara which doesn't hold any bitcoin at all!  Roll Eyes Am I expecting that to sell today for $ 36,000? Probably not. Who am I kidding, I won't be able to sell it even for 1 BTC at current prices. Cheesy Do I regret buying it? No, not at all. I now have a unique art piece in my collection that I enjoy very much. "But you could have kept the 3 BTC and have $ 36,000!" some might say. Yes, I could have. But I probably would have sold them or would have bought some other coins instead. And if not, it is what it is, no regrets here!

Anyway, in response to your question I would suggest one of the following, in order of preference:

- you start an auction at face value without forks: 1 BTC
- you keep the coin
- you peel the coin

Choose wisely my friend.  Smiley

Seeing as the coin is in Mexico, would you be willing to accept escrow?

Im glad someone pointed this out, the redaction and a newbie account I would highly recommend you offer escrow as an option for your bidders,
 minerjones would be a great candidate, many of your bidders are going to ship it to him anyways.
Start at 1.0 BTC allow for escrow and this will pop off!
or just redeem it and sell off the coa+coin after Smiley
