Here are a couple more pics of the front. Not sure how to make them appear smaller in the thread.

When is the auction over? Or rather what price are you looking to get for it?
Thanks
Thanks
Both good questions, as I really didn't know what I had here until today not sure exactly what price i'm looking for. Kinda seeing what the knowledgeable wizards of this site seem to think the fair market value is and will go from there. Not a hard end time as of right now as I am still trying to to figure a fair price. I cant see it going on for very long though as usual Micons read is dead on and I'm looking for a little USD to fire before the WSOP is over.
I'd bid 1.6 for this

Thanks for the pic! I would offer 1.5BTC as it is in rough shape from being handled.

Hey guys I am the anon gentlemen that Micon was referring too. The coin in question was purchased from a buddy after he ordered bout half a dozen or so online in the summer of 2012. Not sure exactly where online he got them but I can tell you that I got this coin the day it was delivered to him and has remained pretty much unmolested in a drawer since I got.(minus the few random tourneys it acted my card protector the first few weeks I had it. 
) here are a few better pics so you can see what your getting. If interested let me know and maybe i can get Micon to help facilitate the transaction. Thanks for the interest guys and look forward to seeing someone scoop this up.
P.S. First time posting too so if the pics don't come up I'll figure it out and post again.

I need pic of the front it better shows condition.
The fact that he is using his fingers to hold it scares me off. That will reduce the grading alot.

The fund date does not really matter with these coins imo. All I care about is the grades they get!
1) new better pic sent by the seller:

2) guy at rio did not want to buy it or didn't know what he is buying. Offers / bids still being accepted / seller may or may not have an un-newbie'd bitcointalk account so he may be texting me / I post here.

It would seem that this 2011 S1 brass Casascius 1BTC coin was funded on 7/26/2012...? Very odd late funding for an S1 Holo...

Does seller have any idea on the history of this coin? Realizing that you are just trying to help a brother quickly convert an asset, it still might assist seller, buyer and price to have a bit of back story here if possible...

Myself and others have 2011 S1 error funded in 2012.

The coin is funded for sure

there is good way to verify here that the 1 btc is in fact unspent if that is in fact a real coin with that serial number and not a brilliant copy?
edit: (rephrase) does this link in fact verify the 1 btc is still "in the coin" i.e. private key contained within the un-peeled holographic coating never used in human history?

Seller is meeting a poker friend of mine now to see if he can quickly get cash in vegas for it.
he says if the deal doesn't go down he will post higher quality pix and respond to the questions in this thread.
Let me see if he can quickly send me a better pic of the front, and based on the research of the hologram info on the back, without knowing *too much* about these I remember buying 5 (have 3 left, gave away 2 that day
from Mike in person I think January 2012 and they were of course 2011 1 btc coins that look very similar to the one the dude is trying to sell now.
Maybe I shouldn't have used mine as a card protector in 2012 WSOP
also I think I bought 5x of them for a $20 bill b/c BTC price was like $3 at the time
lololololololol why didn't I fire a full hundo?
[/end irrational thoughts that we all have]

This sounds fishy to me. I remember buying some 2011 series 1 and series 2 coins in late 2011. How is this possible that a series 1 was sold so late? I'm out until this can be cleared up.
