I have 3 x Gold Aurum notes up for grabs sold as 1 lot. Miners Note - Very rare and collectable, super low serial number : 21 Santa Note - Very rare and collectable, super low serial number : 151 Tree Note - Serial number : 205332 Excuse the poor pic, very hard to photograph as they are so reflective (you can see me and my hands reflected in the pic) - "What is an Aurum?
The Aurum® protects a precise amount of gold between layers of durable polyester. In the form of an Aurum®, gold is more convenient, affordable, versatile, and trustworthy than ever before. Using a proprietary process, very thin and precise quantities of gold are accumulated between layers of polyester film.
The gold is also easy to recover, using standard assay methods. The Aurum® is printed with high resolution, full-color text and graphics. The result is a new, beautiful way to use gold for artistic, commemorative and branding purposes. We are developing Aurum® made with other metals, including platinum, silver and copper. This unique process has U.S. and international patents pending in Europe, China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore, Iceland, India, Australia, Canada, and elsewhere.
Verification
Every Aurum® issue is painstakingly verified using proprietary and industry-standard techniques.
Aurum® are manufactured with a proprietary, vacuum deposition process that allows unprecedentedly small and precise quantities of gold to be accumulated. During this process, gold is bombarded with atoms of argon, causing gold to fly across empty space and strike the printed, polyester film. Then a second sheet of polyester is laminated on top of the accumulated layer of gold, sealing and protecting it.
The gold content of each issue is rigorously verified by the manufacturer, Valaurum, and independent laboratories.
First, Aurum® throughout each production run are checked with a fire assay. During this assay, the polyester film is burned away, leaving the non-reactive gold behind. The resulting pellet is weighed using sensitive scales, confirming the precise quantity of gold in every Aurum®. These assay results are checked regularly against independent scientific laboratories. The manufacturing records, optical readings, and fire assay results of every run are kept for five years, long after the run has been independently verified. " Looking for 0.6 BTC for the 3 including shipping anywhere.
Escrow is OK if you wish to cover the fees.

The grue lurks in the darkest places of the earth. Its favorite diet is adventurers, but its insatiable appetite is tempered by its fear of light. No grue has ever been seen by the light of day, and few have survived its fearsome jaws to tell the tale.

Spurn wild goose chases. Seek that which endures.

It's a nifty artifact but I think a collectible lot isn't the right way for me to buy into it - paying 20x spot for numismatic and novelty value is past my psychological tolerances.
Best of luck, though!

If there is something that will make Bitcoin succeed, it is growth of utility - greater quantity and variety of goods and services offered for BTC. If there is something that will make Bitcoin fail, it is the prevalence of users convinced that BTC is a magic box that will turn them into millionaires, and of the con-artists who have followed them here to devour them.
