As the title states, I need to sell a physical coin ASAP, but I have no idea how to begin to do so safely. I am wanting to get fiat/cash/USD for it. Is it possible to sell via bank transfer? Is that safe? I have paypal, but I know how easy it is for scammers to reverse paypal payments. Are bank transfers safer? What about specific banks. Does anyone know if Key bank is bitcoin friendly? Would they even know the money was from a bitcoin sale? Would the amount of the transfer cause any problems because it is so large? Would it just be better to try to find someone local and trade case for it? How do I know their cash is not counterfeit? How would I even make an in person trade like that safely? And how would I even go about finding someone local? I tried signing up for localbitcoins, but is seems I cannot create an account because of my location(Ohio). And even if I could, It seems like they don't have a way to list physical coins. Sorry for all the questions, but I am getting desperate, and this just seems like it is impossible to do, and do safely without getting killed, or scammed. I really don't want to peel this to redeem the BTC. I think that would be a shame since the amount of these that are unpeel goes down every day. It would make me feel like I was destroying a painting. I also don't really want to sell it for BTC because I don't have a wallet of any kind. Never have. I am super intimidated after reading all the stories about people making a simple mistake, and then "POOF", all their money is gone. I don't want that to be me, and I really need to make sure I have these funds, and soon. Any and all help would be seriously appreciated! Sorry again for rambling.

Sounds archaic, but try Craigslist local. And meet at a police station for transfer. Get a cashiers check. Good luck with your sale.

I would NEVER accept a cashier's check. They are paper and can be counterfeited. I sold a car back in 1998 and got two fake checks. Looked 100 percent legit. Watermark and everything. Someone was able to steal legit paper and started printing checks.
