2022 Lealana "Bitcoin Cent" 0.01 Bitcoin. Loaded. Firstbits 15FzpFza. Serial No. 81. Normal Finish. 1/10oz .999 Fine Silver. MS-70 (ICG)
Loaded with 0.01 BTC. Struck in 1/10oz of .999 fine silver, these pieces are likely the "world's smallest loadable physical bitcoin" according to Smoothie, who is otherwise known as Noah Luis, the creator of the Lealana series. It measures 19.8 mm across, which is roughly half that of Lealana's large silver 2013 1 BTC coin at 39mm. This piece represents the smallest silver denomination of the Lealana series and completes an incremental evolution that crescendos with the 2013 1 BTC pieces. A direct parallel can be drawn to the No Stars Liberty Seated half dimes of 1837 which represented the smallest incarnation of Gobrecht's famous and eponymous dollar coins struck as patterns in 1836. They both offer an accessible glimpse at great artistry, beauty, and rarity. They were first announced on the BitcoinTalk.org forum on October 9, 2022 with a range of desirable varieties including gold plated, select gold plated, and standard silver finishes. In addition, these finishes were also paired with an innovative rainbow hologram patina that is applied selectively throughout the design. In total, six distinct varieties were released. This piece is accompanied by a very special matched Certificate of Authenticity that outlines the coin info including the dimensions, public address, and serial number. Most remarkably, this special COA is hand-signed by Lealana series creator Noah Luis and features an authentication hologram sticker on the back. Less than 200 coins across all types and varieties of this issue were accompanied by signed COAs. Paired with these exceptional coins, they represent a tremendously desirable pairing and will serve as a crowning jewel in a specialized collection of physical crypto.
