Michail1, TookDk, All:
I'll be frank I didn't expect the interest I received and was definitely caught off guard.. Generally I step into any potential sale much more prepared but this was definitely my fault.. I appreciate your responses and feedback..
Topic: [CLOSED] Collection of Casascius Coins - 25BTC, 5BTC, 1BTC (Read 1340 times)
Updated first post..
Too many requests for various price points, appreciate the 30+ offers received of all flavors but given the questions on quality it seems it's best I just get them all graded and then press with selling them... Given that I am sending them for grading and will update thread when they all come back..

This what you can expect if you don't list a asking price, then will you get everything from low ball offers, offers with conditions, trades with other coins etc.
About the grading, I would personally only send them to grading if you are relatively sure they would score MS65 or above... those MS64 can be hard to flip with a premium above the ungraded version.
Good luck with the sale
LOL
Graded coins makes it easier to sell; however, YOU sending in for grading means you're going to pay a higher price than someone established which would get a better discount.
This will also take a month to get done.
And, you will raise the price higher than many would have paid simply because of the additional cost of shipping, insurance, grading, etc.
Basically, you should just close the thread and come back in a month when you get the coins and post individually with a price (or starting price) per unit. Selling in a lot will not get you that.
Spending more time figuring out how the real buyers are will help too.
I am absolutely sure that I can't beat out a scammer in price offering, and I can't beat out the person that just simply wants a coin no matter how above value he bids.
It's good that you're not in a hurry.
Good luck.
PS. You should also work on your terms of payment. Meaning, I will not pay you for something I haven't yet received. So, you have to decide how to transact. Someone to escrow for you or meet in person, etc.

"Hey guys, selling coins, price is secret." 
"Make me an offer; I might reply"
IF you're interested in selling, PM me with YOUR offer
"Make me an offer; I might reply"
IF you're interested in selling, PM me with YOUR offer
This, I hate when I make offers and people don't reply. Just make a counter-offer!

Can you please post the price for them , i might want 1 BTC if price is good .
And, I might want them all (if price is good).
lol with the term if price is good , i din't meant lower than 1 BTC obviously but the above must not be that high

How about you post a price.
And/Or auction them. I like sniping auctions.

Have you got a rough estimate of what you are looking for? I'd be interested in the 1 BTC's 
I also send an offer and no response 
I'm playing catch up with PMs, the two days of downtime and half missing threads messed up a number of ongoing discussions..
Have offers all over the place for all of the coins, the market definitely is dynamic for these but in looking at your last PM your offer is under a number of others..
I also send an offer and no response
Haha Michail YOU FUNNNNYYYYYY.
I have no reply to my offer either
YOU FUNNNNYYYYYY.I have no reply to my offer either
Good spot, mark. I'll wait for pardino to reply. 
LOL.
You didn't expect to get 39BTC face value for only 32.5, did ya? :p (Yes, I would love that deal as well).
Well, according to the post/PM you listed, it was for all 11 coins. "Me counts gud"
With all your massive stores of bitcoin, you were really getting nit picky? Oh geesh.
Ok, I would buy them all. /me is awaiting a quote/pm.
And, why isn't the scammer PMing me anymore. I feel left out.
Well the scammers have tried to scam, so this is now an official Bitcointalk sales thread!
That didn't take long, glad the target looked close...

Nice coins man, maybe you should set a price for them.
I need to look around today and get a better feel for the market, in looking at some threads after the fact it looks like I should probably get them all graded first so there is less ambiguity around the quality...
pardrino...
I am interested in the coins as a LOT. If you post or PM prices (individually and a group purchase), I would seriously consider it; however, I think you're hoping for people to throw out numbers without an actual sale/auction in mind. So, just to start that off, I am obviously happy to offer face value with expectations of it starting to go up from there.
Also, do you have a picture of the back. Your post doesn't mention if the coins are entact or redeemed.
Good spot, mark. I'll wait for pardino to reply.

Grading them will help some on the prices, but the 2013 brass do not fetch a huge premium.
I have PM'd you an offer. 
I offer 10.5BTC for the 9 x 1BTC coins.
That was quick, thanks for the offer.. I have some separate PMs with various offers, going to roll through them and see where things stand..

I have a collections of funded Casascius coins I've been holding onto for some time, it's been a good place to put BTC however things have changed some and I want to liquidate at least some of the coins.
Initially posting this to gauge interest in the coins, will pull specific data on the coins themselves as needed...
