He does have a few casascius coins from the pictures he sent me, probably stole them from unsuspecting victims. What a shame.

Shyster ! Any chance you could show us these pics ? Maybe we can connect a few dots and work out who the Telegram scammers are ? Not sure if it will help you personally or if in deed anyone , but long term as a community it may help ?

Yes please! This is a great idea.

I’m still good with 1.15 btc escrow to miner jones upon arrival and authentication


Let’s do 1.2 and I cover all fees? I really need the money.



Turns out the “buyer” tried to pull a quick one on me pretending to be minerjones for escrow on telegram.

It’s about to be sold for 1.22 on Monday. You could try and outbid him for 1.25? Minerjones is doing escrow for 1%

After he just asked 1.2? This is weird.

Just worth mentioning, and I mean no harm to 10casproj by mentioning this, but the 10casproj account was started today and this account is already jumping in to make a big complicated purchase. Stay safe out there everyone. Verify and escrow, beware of telegram and other off forum schemes.

I’m hoping he made the account to purchase the coin as a long time lurker. Anyway if it’s in escrow I’m not too worried, especially if minerjones does the the escrow and the reshipping after authentication : as in 10casproj sending the btc to escrow before I even ship it to minerjones.


I like that you’re looking out for the community tho! Greatly appreciated.

I would do 1.15 BTC for this with escrow but i would need someone who is familiar with fakes.


Willing to do 1.2 if there’s no better offer. I pay shipping you pay escrow.

Happy to authenticate any Casascius coins for you or anyone else. Cheesy


How would that work? Would a HD zoom call do the trick? I really don’t mind the authentication, it has corrosion spots so you already know it’s about 10 years old. I’m slightly worried about the tiny & almost non existant lost package during shipping which would get doubled if it’s shipped twice..

If I declare the full value of the coin for shipping insurance reasons, would the buyer pay the duties on it? Have you ever authenticated these coins before? What’s the best way to do this?

From the photos you have provided, the coin appears genuine and the address still states loaded with the 1 btc.

Depends on where the buyer lives..  in the US, we do not pay customs/VAT fees.
Due to the value, best practice at this time would be an agreed in person meeting if possible while funds were held in escrow
Other options would be a secure shipping method such as USPS Registered Mail, which can insure value up to $50k
I have authenticated hundreds of Casascius coins to date and have recently posted information about fake holograms.
Hopefully others can reply with some recommended ideas for this transaction! Cheesy

Pm sent

New account so I can’t send more than 2 DMs a day. To answer your question : not yet


To all those wondering why it’s a new account, I forgot the credentials to my old one and haven’t been on here since 2017. I do have some + trust on my old one after I sold a casascius to OGnasty in July of 2015.

@quakerbull can we continue DMs on here? This is a new account and I can only send 1 DM per hour.

For high res pictures I’d assume I’ll have to send through another platform.

Reason for sale : times are getting a lil tough for me. Instead of redeeming the 1btc to sell im trying to see if anyone on here is interested before I rip the back sticker off this beautiful coin.

Here are better close ups... hopefully helps

Does anyone have any idea what those black spots on the brass are on the back right side? Normal aging of the coin?

It’s brass so it’s prone to rust, that’s why I put it in the little coin holder thing. I was told not to clean my coins because it would make it worse over time but I’m also no expert. I think it would come off easy by gently scraping it off dry but I also don’t mind the little spots and don’t want to make it worse since I have absolutely no idea what I’m doing.

Hello, times are getting tough and I think it’s time for me to sell my 1btc physical coin.

Pictures with time stamp will be posted if there’s interest in it.

I bought it for 1.3btc about 9 years ago and I’m hoping to get something around that amount if possible. Coin will be shipped from Canada, escrow accepted.
