MAY 24, 2020 AUCTION - UNIQUE 5 BTC HYBRID COIN - LEALANA & CASASCIUS***Carefully read this auction post in its entirety before bidding***This auction ends Sunday May 31, 2020 at 4:00pm Mountain Daylight Time (UTC -6).
BIDDING AND PAYMENTMinimum bid will start at 5 BTC. Bidding will be done in minimum increments of 0.005 BTC (all bids must be a multiple of 0.005). Bitcoin is the ONLY accepted form of payment for this auction. Please bid in the following format:
CORRECT FORMAT: "I bid 5.005 BTC"INCORRECT FORMAT: "I bid 5.123456 BTC"Should bids come in within 5 minutes of the end of the auction, the auction will be extended according to the following rules. For each bid which comes in within the last 5 minutes of the auction, the auction will be extended by 1 minute per each additional bid. For example, if 3 bids are made within the last 5 minutes, the auction will be extended by 3 minutes. Each additional bid made after the originally scheduled auction end will also extend the auction by one additional minute. This will be measured by the minute, not by the second. Following the above example, if a bid comes in at 4:02 MDT (within the 3 minute extension), the auction will be extended by one minute to 4:04 MDT. If another bid comes in at 4:03:59, the auction will be extended to 4:05:00. If the next bid comes in at 4:05:01, the auction will be extended to 4:06:00. Official bid time records will be determined by the timestamp posted on your bid reply. Upon the auction end, I will announce the winner and declare the end of the auction.
THE COINUp for auction is a true rarity - a unique 5 BTC coin manufactured by Lealana and Casascius. The coin is fully funded per the terms set forth by Smoothie when he sold the coin originally.
The original auction thread where I won it from Smoothie can be found here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1145131Please review the above, as there is much info about the coin in that thread.
My "Interest Check" thread from 2017 can be found here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1930352The coin will be sold as received by me, in a plastic airtite with Lealana business card. See photos for details. Keep in mind that at this point, due to the several hard forks by BTC since this coin was made, this coin is still funded with not only the 5 regular BTC, but is funded with 5 Bitcoin Gold, 5 Bitcoin Cash, etc.

This 1% of the auction total will be split between myself and the winning bidder. This means that if you are the winning bidder, you will need to budget an additional 0.5% of the winning total for your share of the escrow. If you are the winner of the auction, please let me know your preferred escrow agent. If you would prefer a different escrow provider, please PM me before you bid so we can work out a mutually agreed upon third option. Other escrow providers can be found here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2439910.0Shipping in the USA will be $30. This shipping cost will be added to the total of the winning bid after the auction ends. Shipping will be via USPS registered mail (which requires a signature upon delivery).
Shipping outside the USA will be managed by minerjones, who has offered to facilitate international shipping for this auction. The winning bidder can choose from USPS, Global Post, UPS, and Fedex. If you are the winning bidder and are outside the US, after the auction ends I will be in touch along with minerjones to coordinate shipping and cost. This cost will then be added to the total of the winning bid. I will ship the coin(s) to minerjones via USPS registered mail, after which he will send to you. Please be aware this method of shipping will take longer than conventional post, because of all these additional safeguards we are utilizing to ensure a successful delivery of your coin(s).
After working out shipping, upon successful payment to the escrow agent, your coin(s) will be shipped within 24 hours or as soon as reasonably possible.
Please do not send payment to any wallet address until shipping and escrow have been determined. Payment will be sent to the escrow agent's wallet; please refer to your selected escrow agent's escrow thread for their payment address.
Escrow arrangement, shipping arrangement, and payment are all due within 72 hours from the time the auction ends. Should the winner not honor their bid and not provide payment in that 72 period, the next highest bidder will be requested to honor their bid.
