Crypto Imperator zinc alloy "Doge" Loaded (Unredeemed) 10,000 DOGE 2014 MS66 NGC, Ahonen-pg 140. Total Issued: 400. Not serialized. Type PF. 39mm. Firstbits DAU2oBRK. Loaded and unredeemed. Crypto Imperator initially rode to fame on the coat-tails of the massively popular internet Doge-meme. The irresistibly cute Shiba Inu dog named Kabosu conquered collective hearts on social media to such an extent that a DOGE currency was launched in December 2013, and rapidly gained a market capitalization of tens of millions in USD. While the currency was considered more of a joke than a serious cryptocurrency, it served as a fun and inexpensive entry to the realm of crypto. Operating from Spain, Crypto Imperator grasped the opportunity and crafted inexpensive zinc alloy tokens featuring the friendly dog exclaiming 'WOW', and doing so created the most affordable pre-funded physical crypto tokens of the time. On the reverse, the intricate hologram features an image of a laurel-headed imperator, rockets and the catchy phrase 'TO THE MOON'. Kabosu sadly passed away this year, but her legacy is immortalized on this charming token.
