Details

Coin was sent to me and funded by Casascius in July 2012.  Blockchain link, that also shows it was part of the same batch as the prior auction linked above:

As you can see in the photo, the hologram has missing second 's' error of 'Casascius' with printed address and the coin is in excellent condition.

You're bidding on exactly the coin shown in the photos.  It will be sent inside the coin capsule shown.

Payment

No escrow.  I will PM you with a payment address ending in EbeG6HvqML7x (pre-announcing this makes impersonation not worthwhile for losers).

Shipping

Free shipping and insurance worldwide.  I will use Japan Post's EMS.  This involves some basic tracking which I will provide to you.  According to the post office it will take from 4-7 business days.  The item will be declared as a collectible.

If you want insurance I have to declare the value you pay.  You are responsible for taxes or other issues created by enforcers at your border.  If you don't want insurance, I will declare it with a token value of around 5 USD.

If EMS tracking says: "received" or "could not be delivered, needs to be picked up" or similar, it's on you: the coin is considered to be delivered at that point.  In case of trouble/dispute I am allowed to publicize the tracking number.  On request, I will publicize the tracking number here in the thread.  Upon receiving the coin, it would be nice if you posted that fact here.

His profile.One hour old.

As in the original post, the time limits are set, I will not change them.  And the address ends in EbeG6HvqML7x.  I registered my a/c in mid 2011.

Ignore the losers.

[zebedee]

Bump.  Just over 24 hrs left to pick up this rare coin in excellent condition.

If you're talking about the top right, it appears to be a crease, I suspect from manufacture time.  I'd not noticed that before.
