Description

2022 Polymerbit 0.005 Bitcoin Banknote. Loaded. Firstbits bc1qa0n3. Czech Edition. Serial No. A000300. Series 28-U (ND). Superb Gem Uncirculated 67 PPQ (PCGS).

Loaded with 0.005 BTC. Dated July 22, 2022, this note was produced by Polymerbit as a "thank you to the various suppliers around the Czech Republic that are responsable for the security features you see in our notes." Just 156 of this type were printed and this is the first such example we have had the pleasure of presenting at auction. An Unfunded example of the Crypto Valley edition was sold for $1,140 in our August 2023 sale and we certainly anticipate even greater excitement for this loaded Czech example. Just 4 have been graded finer by PCGS. This particular variety was offered without a specific denomination, which allows a collector to fund it up to a custom amount. It functions in a similar way to the popular crypto coins by Casascius, Lealana and others, featuring an associated public address that can be loaded to a custom amount and a private key hidden behind a security seal that can be used to redeem the value. The private keys were generated by company founder Daniele Barbagallo, who is well respected within the crypto community. Public Address: bc1qa0n3cxzkr69gdel4qhhxktrqfz5exuh6ayr3pt

PCGS# 1149519. NGC ID: ECLS.
