Pattern 2013 Lealana 0.25 Bitcoin. Loaded. Firstbits 1PSQVPC2. Serial No. 145. Red Address. Gilt Silver. Proof-69 Deep Cameo (PCGS).

Loaded with 0.25 BTC. This special Pattern, or prototype, 2013 Lealana 0.25 Bitcoin ranks among the very most desirable physical crypto coins in existence. It has been sourced directly from the Lealana Archives, a private treasure trove of experimental and unique creations by Lealana that were never announced or released publicly. It showcases a myriad of special finishes, security enhancements, and other unique features that exemplify the innovative techniques and approach that are signature to the Lealana series. Many features on this 2013 Pattern coin have later gone on to be utilized on official releases. It is only the second example known in private hands. The first example realized an astounding $14,400 in our Spring 2023 sale, which was more than two times the face value at the time of the sale. This coin was funded directly by Lealana creator Noah Luis, who is also known throughout the crypto community as "Smoothie." In addition to the vibrant gilt finish, this coin features a special red Firstbits address, which is a color never used on the official releases of these issues. It also features a special gold-colored hologram, which replaces the standard silver-colored hologram used for most issues. As an added security feature, the full public addresses and serial number have been laser engraved around the reverse edge on each coin. This is an experimental, yet effective, technique that was not utilized on official Lealana releases until 2020. The coin is accompanied by a matching Certificate of Authenticity issued by Lealana which outlines the characteristics and public address. This COA has been individually hand-signed by Noah Luis, creator of the Lealana series, and features an authentication hologram that was not included on the standard certificates.
