To our knowledge a real gold coin has NEVER been listed on Listia before. This is the, if not one of the, hottest coin auctions in Listia's history. As a company we strive to take part in even the most outrageous giveaways.

Bid starts at 200,000 do not ask to lower. If coin sells it will sell, if not then on eBay it goes.

We at coinsnnotes know however that this is best value for your listia points ever!

Gold is a great investment and unlike silver, is a metal that is internationally credited and recognized as a metal for trade.

To recap, this is NOT a gold plated coin! This is a real Swiss gold standard coin.

FREE INCLUDED WITH COIN: For reasons simply to make our customers happy, we are using real swiss stamps instead of just a electronic stamp for shipping. So you get a FREE stamp for your collection too!

Take note there's free tracking too as this coin is rare and is made of actual gold!

Don't hesitate to ask questions about the coin, although questions deemed as spam/ derogatory will be hidden with an explanation as to why the comment was hidden.

Don't have enough credits? Support listia's hardworking staff by purchasing them via their Get Credits tab (top of the page).

Questions & Comments

Uh....according to your own posts on Numista, you are not even 18 years old.

Sorry to be critical, but if it sounds too good to be true.....
And besides, I have yet to receive ANY of the gold I have won on Listia. Once bitten, twice shy.

One side of me wants to block you for irritating me, but why would/should I when I can happily prove you that this is 100% real. Did you even read our about me page on the coinsnnotes website. Or even the countless posts by numista team members. You shouden't be so critical about age. Age is just a number. Just because I've created this when I turned 15 should do the exact opposite, it should astound you, considering the fact that I've created my own business, without any funding or mentor. Some people love their hobby so much, that if they turn it into a job, they will feel like they never worked a day in thier lives. I use my hobbies of business, numismatics, website creation, marketing, languages and business all to my favor. Let me ask you this, do you speak 5 languages fluently? Languages that you dont hesitate to use to make business partners, friends and more. While you site there panicking about this being 'too good to be true' do some research on us. Since as one of the youngest self made CEO's I love my job and I love what I have created.

it is not the first real gold coin on listia, I've watched two others, still really nice coin. I wish I had 200000 credits.

Jul 11th, 2013 at 6:30:44 PM PDT by

Oh well, atleast its probably the first swiss gold coin. Not many people would put up gold for listia points. Thank you for watching!

Jul 12th, 2013 at 2:58:08 AM PDT by

Good answers...I am still watching (and considering) because you gave me straight answers, when many people would have arbitrarily blocked me, LOL.

1) My best friend is a translator, 12 languages, so I have a great respect for that skill.
2) Age has nothing to do with integrity- I applaud your ambition. I was simply worried because Listia rules state you must be 18 years of age to participate.
3) I am not worried about losing my credits...but I do not care to be inconvenienced, either!

Jul 15th, 2013 at 1:18:36 PM PDT by

Blocking seems to be a trend here on listia, Ive noticed that my self. And about this rule about being 18, thats exactly what user Karenwallace told me. Though i'd like to state that It's not that I simply ignored that rule, its the fact that I never saw it. In fact there are many under 18 sellers on here so i just assumed age was not in the question. I just hope listia dosent suspend my account due to the fact that I've had a good track record (expect for a negative rating, but that was a digital delivery) and the fact that I'm giving away quality stuff to promote listia and help this listian credit economy. Hopefully I get to keep my account active until my 18th birthday (about a month away). Interestingly enough, Ive never hidden my age from listians, most people knew I was under 18, simply because I didn't think I was breaking any agreement.

what the book value

Jul 12th, 2013 at 7:14:23 AM PDT by

Technically speaking, we put this up for the gold content. This coin in is excellent condition. There is some glue residue, but this doesn't damage the value of the coin since it didn't actually damage the metal and is easily removable without cleaning. I just don't have numismatic Acetone availible. Acetone is a substance used to remove grime and glue without damaging or cleaning the coin. Coin dealers and collectors use it all the time. The point is this coin is worth the bid. And lets face it, listia credits will only bring you so far. Gold on the other hand...

Jul 12th, 2013 at 8:13:43 AM PDT by

are you a company or private individual? if your a company why are you giving gold away for listia credits that can only be used on listia????

Jul 13th, 2013 at 6:09:43 AM PDT by

BambooShutes, you are not the first to ask us about our motives, so here goes:
We are a company founded in Nov. 2011 that specializes in numismatic items including but not limited to coins, banknotes and antiques .There is a very good reason why we are giving away this gold coin. Listia has some great things that actually are useful in our business, form coins being given away without the owners knowing the real value to numismatic supplies and appliances. We can afford giving away this gold coin since there is a fair return in items that help us prosper. It is true that listia credits are not real money but as I said, theres a great return. And even better is that the buyer gets real gold instead of hard to use and limited listia credits. Everybody wins.

Jul 13th, 2013 at 8:02:08 AM PDT by

can you bite it to prove it's gold?

Jul 13th, 2013 at 5:22:13 PM PDT by

I'm pretty sure the precision scale, not to mention our companies international track record with normal sales should be enough evidence. Biting coins dosent prove it's gold and actually just damages the numismatic value of the coin. But I know you are joking :P

F&W

Jul 13th, 2013 at 11:03:23 PM PDT by

Thanks, did the same back :P

Jul 14th, 2013 at 2:17:51 AM PDT by

For those wondering why I don't have a verified number, that is because listia dosent accept non us numbers. So ill have to wait until December when I'm back in FL to verify it.

Jul 14th, 2013 at 9:02:35 AM PDT by

TO VISITORS: We are a trusted and verified company. This giveaway is 100% real (you can see by the images) and listia will insure any bids. In addition, there is a tracking number you will receive that will insure both parties (coinsnnotes) and your self. Shipping to the United States should take no more than one month.

We know that items that are so expensive might make even the best founded listians worried, but listia will protect your points. And we will strive to make sure that coin comes right to your mailbox.

Jul 14th, 2013 at 10:37:40 AM PDT by

Is there any chance you might extend the time a day or two? That would allow some of us to build up a bigger stash of credits and probably make it go a bit higher at the end.

Jul 14th, 2013 at 6:57:35 PM PDT by

Hate to tell you this, but once a bid is in, I cant extend the time.

Its 12 pm and I'm off to sleep, good luck bidders :) The issue of being under 18 is being resolved. Should not be a problem.
