Description

Redeemed 2013 Lealana 10 Litecoin. Firstbits LiSMqpRQ. Black Address, Non-Serialized. "Error" Variety. Silver. Proof-64 Deep Cameo (PCGS).
Redeemed and non-loaded. This is one of the earliest 10 LTC coins produced by Lealana, identified by a black address but no serial number on the hologram. Just 500 were reportedly issued of this variety, representing only 25% of the total mintage for the denomination. It is also notable as an example of the "error" variety made without the private key "pit" under the hologram. This "error" caused distortion of the hologram over time and a pit was added the planchet only after the first 1,000 coins had already been produced. An historic relic from the early period of physical crypto and certainly an important find for specialists. This lovely piece ranks as the only example of the type graded by PCGS. Public Address: LiSMqpRQjEjHFQPjjN1kiZD3jZ38zAhGUU
PCGS# 907272.
PCGS Population: 1; none finer. The only example graded by PCGS.

Estimate: $500
