[WTS] 2011 Casascius Coin Series 1 **Error** Coin unredeemed

[LibertyMindDead]

I'm posting this on behalf a party that doesn't have a bitcointalk account. He and I will be at Bitcoin 2025 in Vegas at the end of this month & he is hoping to sell his coin for cash at that event but is also willing to sell it before or after. He has informed me that the coin is ungraded & not in great condition. I can't speak for him as far as price, but I know he is motivated & may even take at or near face value for it. The caveat here is that he only wants cash for it.

I also have a graded 2011 series 1 Error coin for sale. I am looking to get a decent price for mine, but I will accept cash or bitcoin for it. I will entertain offers but probably won't sell it for less than 1.25 btc just FYI.

You can see my post with pics & more info on my coin(s) here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5537093.msg65236120#msg65236120

I don't have pics yet of the other party's coin.

still for sale???

Yes but I've been told my asking price of 1.5 btc is unrealistic, at least for selling through this forum as I'm told this is more of a wholesale marketplace. But if you're interested at 1.5 btc it is available.

Just peel it.  You are not going to get anything close to your asking price unfortunately.



p.s.  don't get robbed by someone telling you that they will pay your asking price.

...and this has not been the only incident.

Agreed! Also - don’t just peel it. Cut around the circular keys with a razor blade, keeping the holo looking clean. This will help bring a premium when you sell the redeemed coin

If you do decide to cut it out the key with an exacto knife, or some razor to keep the holo mostly in tact be really careful. I redeemed a cas a few years ago and cut part of the key text! luckily I was able to piece the letters together and redeem. You can kind of see the outline of where the indentation is for the key area, but its really hard to tell anyway best of luck to you if you do go this route there is a decent premium on them on ebay/stacks ect

How much could a 2011 Casascius error coin be worth, graded MS68 or MS67, with the hologram perfectly cut?

prices are all ove the place buying here is a little different compared to the secondary market. The ones that were cut perfectly already go for 1-2k  from what I have seen on the secondary market ebay ect. the 2011 error holo intact pretty much 2-3k I would say somewhere in that range, but I am no expert. I am basing it off what I have seen sell recently and over the past few months. I have a few myself I intend on keeping for a long time

perfectly cut just seems like it’s enabling the counterfeit market or at least could be.

Have you even seen what we are talking about? You can obviously tell they’ve been cut and address shows redeemed. Just makes for a cleaner cut holo. Here’s a random example on eBay if it links (not mine) : https://ebay.us/m/dsg6mE
