damn. $400-500 just to escrow. lol sounds a bit much...

yeah for that price it's cheaper to fly in and do the exchange in person

i dont think he did, but he should do an auction starting at 1 BTC  Grin

It's worth 1 bitcoin + bitcoin cash + bitcoin sv + any other forks since its OG So there's no point it letting people bid less than I'd get for just peeling it. At present I don't need a quick sale

that's cool krogoth! didn't know that part.

mcmasterp, did you lower it to 1.1? i thought i had read that
if so, i'd like to take it. I'd feel comfortable using the minerjones escrow guy on here.
let me know

I did but I raised it up as my need to sell was for a house purchase that fell through so now I have more time to wait and so I raised it. I did just lower it some again but I won't be going any lower

oh i think i see it! the hologram picture part came out blurry
so in the hologram casacius is spelled over and over in the hologram background right?


im new to bitcointalk.org and have been trying to get a cas coin. are you open to using an escrow service or an escrow person that is recommended on here. i heard minerjones is the guy for that

let me know

thanks

you got it the over and over ones.

I am certainly open to escrow if we can't do it in person. As long as the escrow is safe I see no problem. I'm not familiar with minerjones or anyone else but there must be a secure way to do these things

question:

so you are saying casascius is misspelled? i was a little confused on what the error is exactly

how's the condition of the coin? (hard to see through the plastic to see). any scratches?
it doesn't seem to be graded right?

thanks !!

On the back in the hologram it is misspelled as casacius missing an s you can Google casascius error coin for details. It is not a graded coin and it spent years just in a drawer so I'm sure it's not prime new looking but it also hasn't been subjected to a ton of movement or contact with object so no major scratches or dents etc

See your address here? https://www.blockchain.com/search?search=1AEjKrYnKfgqHsHZEzt7zN5AxUhwv8iML9

See how there are 2 blockchains? You can see you have 1 Bitcoin Cash (BCH) on your coin as well. Which right now is  ~ $430 extra on top of the 1 BTC.

So, that's how I determine "peel value". I know there are a couple of other shit-fork coins on there as well, but I can't recall the names atm. Tongue


neat thank you. I'll take an extra $430 any day!

"Under peel" typically does not refer to selling 1 BTC physical under 1 BTC. As you said, that doesn't make sense. But what happens is sometimes when you consider all of BTC forks on the coin, the premium will be less than that. So it's really:
1 BTC + Premium < Premium + 1 BTC + 1 BCH, etc. This is because the forks on the coin are often not truly considered or desired by those collecting physical Bitcoins. In a low premium environment, this means "under peel" is a possibility.

Thank you for the explanation but I'm actually a bit confused.  Ate you saying my 1 bitcoin is worth more than 1 btc because forks happened after? That sounds too good to be true lol.

Yeah it's just unrealistic in the current market times, unfortunately. Some coins going for under peel lately... Tongue

wait why would someone sell a collectible version of a coin worth 1 bitcoin for less than 1 bitcoin? They would essentially be paying someone to take the coin? If you peel it and redeem it digitally you get the whole thing. Is there something I'm missing?

Bare with me as I am new here.

I bought a physical bitcoin back in 2011 or 2012 when bitcoin looked "dead" and I wanted a piece of history. Boy I wish I had just purchased digital bitcoins then I'd be rich lol but as it happens the coin I bought was from casascuis 1st run the ones with the misspelled name in the hologram. it has code printed on it not the window like later versions. This is a real deal, no bs scammer bs and I expect bidders to be the same.

Starting bid is 1.25btc
