Get outta here with this "version" stuff, refer to the date on the front of the coin and the SERIES of the hologram only

I call bullshit on this coin without actual pics / any sort of pedigree

Anyone buying one of these without a known history is bonkers

You may be able to auction it anyway and have the escrow agent receive the bitcoin, HODL it, then give you the private key to extract the bitcoin and bitcoin cash after you send the buyer the coin. Just an idea.

That could work. Thanks.

Yes, I would highly recommend minerjones

Cool.  He won’t have it by Aug 1 though.  Looks like unless there’s someone local I won’t be getting any extra Bitcoin Cash.  Damn!

I thought you said it was version 2?  

You can check in the Encyclopedia of Physical Bitcoins - the section on Casascius coins is free as a pdf from coinfirm.org

Yes, it is Series 2.  I didn’t think “Version” and “Series” was interchangeable in this case, but they are.  Thank you.

Wow, nice catch/score! Those are quite rare, do you plan to auction it? Thanks! 

I was thinking about it until I just found out about their rarity.

Can't blame you there. If you are in the states, you should send it to anacs and have it graded. Hopefully it's been in a casule it's whole life etc... Either way, congrats! Cheesy

Thank you.  I will look into that.

You have yourself quite a valuable coin, congratulations.  As owlcatz said, having it graded by ANACS is a good idea if you intend to sell it (assuming it has been stored in a capsule and is still in mint state)

Actually, I would like sell this one and to get the Bitcoin Cash attached to the number of coins.  I guess the usual way is to send it to someone for escrow, right?

Series 2 only had 45 produced.   Back when nubbins was selling them they went for over 15 btc each.  Now, with btc much higher in usd terms and the lower prices being realized for Casascius coins it is hard to determine the market value other than an auction.

My personal guess on where such an auction would end is from 4 - 6 btc.

So this is a Series 2?
