2013 Lealana 0.1 Bitcoin. Loaded. Firstbits 1Btcxn68. Serial No. 1332. Black Address. Brass. MS-67 (PCGS).
Loaded with 0.1 BTC. First introduced as Lealana Litecoin, the Lealana series was released to collectors and investors in June 2013 as a counterpart to the Casascius physical bitcoins introduced in 2011. It was invented and issued by Noah Luis of Honolulu, Hawaii, who is perhaps better recognized within the crypto community by his internet handle "smoothie." This 2013 brass 0.1 BTC is remarkable as the only non-silver coin in the entire Lealana Bitcoin series. According to specialist Elias Ahonen, just 400 of this type were issued and many have likely been peeled and redeemed over the past decade. A similar MS-67 (PCGS) example sold for $5,280 in our March 2023 sale. Public Address: 1Btcxn68edXWz79S6H3VyhMbjvrgCx9Xd7.
