To close this thread off from my end. I have recieved this coin and the others agreed with Miffman, and he has also recieved the coins I sent to him as part of the trade. Easy, smooth transaction.

Dont worry Miffman. I will take good care of her  Wink

Now getting ready for the flood of 68's other folks will get. (I think some of the bowl coins will get higher than 67). But for now, I am pleased to have a unique coin

Don't worry I wouldn't as that's not fair if you've agreed Smiley

Congratulations to both of you!!

Well done fellow monkey!!

I was just sorting out the coins to put in an offer  Wink

Ahh I'm not gonna take any offers just incase it's higher and end up punching myself  Grin Tongue

Thanks to all that offered!  Smiley The buyer can disclose how much it was traded for if he/she wishes.

Miffman got the best of the deal ! But I wanted the coin. I will leave it between us 2 though. I like a bit of mystery  Lips sealed

Get ready for the flood of MS68's surfacing now  Cry

A definite buy-it-now would be 1BTC and fully loaded lealana 0.1 brass roll of 20 (non-buyer funded) Wink

Would you be interested in a trade for a .1 silver ms-67 and some btc (premium for the 68 over the 67)?

I have had some offers like that, I may be interested. PM me!

Is the first pic yours? If you still have some ungraded from the roll, I'm interested in buying.

That first pic is from cyclops, I bought the coin from him. I'm not sure if he has left, so drop him a PM! Smiley

Yup miffman bought the coin from me, sadly I sold all the remaining ones long ago, except one I sent to ANACS and got a good MS-67 Smiley

Looks like you kept the wrong one lol.

Yep, nearly punched myself after he told me the grade it got Tongue

Oh and with regards to shipping, if it's a trade, we cover shipping each and if it's BTC then I'll find out how much shipping is when I actually post it.

I'm not familar with coin grading, is 68 the highest you can get? I thought it was 70 for currency (including coins)?

MS70 is the highest grade you can get for any coin. This is just the first MS68 casascius coin out there. All others are MS67 or lower.  Smiley

Please let us know what the initial price was. I can send you a fair offer then.

Thanks in advance!

Before I start, you need to know that I do not this coin on hand as of now. It was shipped before Christmas some time and taking it's time.
So, why am I posting this now? Cos money is tight, and my antiques haven't sold. And it's pretty exciting  Grin

Anyway, as the title says, I graded a casascius tenth at ANACS and the grade is MS-68! It's the first MS-68 I am aware of. If this is of any interest, I bought the coin from cyclops here at the forum.

As of now, I don't have a definite price. I will take offers by PM ONLY. I would prefer BTC, but trades is an option too. All offers are considered. Like my other threads, I won't ask you to send until I do.

EDIT: as requested, I'll put an initial price to work from; 2BTC. My ballpark idea for a price is higher, but for now I won't take anything under 2BTC. Oh and of course escrow if you want. Buyer settles escrow fees. A definite trade would be a MS67 1BTC Casascius gold/silver + .25BTC
