Congratulations!!!

This is another piece of good news for the collectible marketplace as a whole.
Is the buyer willing to reveal both identity and purchase price?
Absent that, just knowing price is next-most-helpful, then just-buyer.
Worst case, I could log its sale, with you as seller and both buyer and price anonymous.

I think there are a lot of people interested in seeing what kind of premium a low-mintage coin such as this has sold for, as Bitcoin has risen from the ~$200 level to the ~$1000 level.  Few want to "go first" in buying, in terms of BTC premiums, when the price has risen.  I'm anticipating that, once 3, 5, maybe 10 sales come in at this new price level, that confidence will be restored, and marketplace activity will grow substantially.




Chainsaw,

At the buyers request I have been asked not to reveal final price or buyers name. The sale is currently pending payment, which should be received 12/06/2013. I will keep everyone updated.

And prices for all coins have been updated.

Thank you for all of the comments. I appreciate them. We have been contacted by the owner of www.gyft.com he seems to be very interested in aquiring the set. As for why we are selling; because as amazing as this set is we had so much fun tracking down the pieces, collecting them, grading them, and if we are able to sell this set we will be able to begin building this set again. It took a long time, many people, and coins from all over the world. We've met amazing people, established friendships and business relationships. It will be a fun journey to do it again!

And yes Goats set is very amazing! I can't even begin to tell you how much I would love to see that set in person. I would love to be able to see Mikes (Casascius) set as well could you imagine ring able to see and hold the first funded coins? That would be pretty cool. Imagine in 20 years, to be able to say hey I was there, I saw it, held it, now it's worth $1,000,000!!!

You think as the value continues to climb they will be so expensive that only a very limited few can afford them?  Is that a good thing or bad?

I do, and not at all. Coin collecting is a billion dollar business. There are very deep pockets that will pay dearly for coins they want.

I'm up to negotiate for that silver 10 coin. Everything else I don't care about.  I saw your listing on eBay yesterday. You will have a hard time selling that as a whole. Part it out or hold on to it longer.

Amazing! You're more than welcome to link to it from the marketplace thread.

It's great to see a second 2011 25 BTC up for grabs, not to mention another 2011 1 BTC [MS-66].
Not to mention a first-offered Lealana and Titan offering.

I hope you're able to find someone willing to buy the whole lot.

One of the best collections behind Goat and Casascius himself. I have to wonder why you would sell the entire collection as a set, however. There are only a handful of people in the world with the interest and bitcoins to acquire this collection, and I'd bet that half of those already have their own collections.  Any chance on selling off individual coins?

This is without a doubt the best collection of coins I've seen. Only thing missing is a 1000BTC Casascius gold coin  Grin

Thank you. The owner is a close friend. I helped him start this collection and then he just went wild! Haha. Very impressive.

ANACS MS-67 2012 10BTC Silver w/ Gold Plated "B".  This is an exceptional example with a very high grade.  Only 487 of the 10BTC denominated 1 Oz silver coins were produced, with roughly half of them having the gold plated "B".  Of those 487, only 446 remain active with the hologram still intact.  The binary numbers on the reverse translate to "Bitcoin, an idea too big to fail".  This coin was funded February 16th, 2013.
