Interesting. So, a user by the name Jay957 posted the same coin for sale in the Auctions section:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/wts-casascius-physical-bitcoin-2011-with-spelling-error-5322405

That I think is a legitimate sales thread. And OP in this thread (Jay9577, with an appended '7' in username) is a scumbag trying to scam people.

Great catch buddy..

User is a scammer FYI https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/urgent-beware-sophisticated-telegram-scammers-5322537

Possibly, but not necessarily. The group that has been targeting us is known to manipulate both parties (buyer and seller). So, it is possible that the same scammer posed as Agrawas and asked Jay to send that specific phrase via PM under a false pretense. I have experienced this firsthand.

Definitely a SCAM --- https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/wts-casascius-2011-coin-w-error-funded-5323029

Was contacted by the user(Jay9577) on Telegram to ship the coin right away since he needs funds urgently. I asked him to message me back on the forum with a phrase which he did that proves it is the same person here and on the Telegram. I insisted on using the Escrow or shipping first. He agreed to use MJ eventually to which I send a message to him and MJ. Never heard back on forum messages but few mins later received a message on Telegram from so called minerjones to provide escrow service(Well please be careful guys, I got little confused to this part but later realized the person hid the userID which could have been anything but the screen name was showing exactly as minerjones.

PLEASE PLEASE Do not finalize anything with anyone off forum unless u have chatted with them before and are 100% sure it's the right person that you are making the deal with.

Jay, please respond to this allegation. What prompted you to send Agrawas a PM with the aforementioned phrase? It would be useful to provide supportive evidence.

Also, I would suggest posting new photos of your coin with today's date and the correct username (Jay9577).

I spoke to Agrawas and I know for a fact it was him so it’s not the case. We will never see “Jay” again.

Good investigative work, and good catch Agrawas!

I believe all the S1 coins had the spelling error.

Good luck with sales, Jay9577! I think that's a fair starting price for a series 1.

Description:
I got 2 original casascius coins back in 2012 (both with the spelling error) and opened and redeemed one of them during the last bull run.
Now I want to try and sell the other one.
I carried them around in my wallet back in the day to show them to people so it's not in great condition but still decent.

Starting bid:
1.01 BTC

Buy it now:
1.28BTC

End date and time:
March 18th, 8am UTC+0

Payment methods accepted:[/b]
BTC, ETH, WIRE, CASH, Negotiable
Escrow is an option too

Additional information:
Living in Berlin, Germany
Easiest would be to just meet and hand it over.
I'm happy to accomodate a more complicated handover (get it graded first, escrow,...) if the price is right.
Happy to set up some sort of official sale contract but not required.
I ve made the same post in Auction part of the forum, but I thought I could post it here too
Cheers
