Description

Impressive Redeemed Lealana 0.1 BTC in Brass
Just 3 Finer at PCGS
Redeemed 2013 Lealana 0.1 Bitcoin. Firstbits 1BtcCwWf. Serial No. 709. Black Address. Brass. MS-66 (PCGS).
Redeemed and non-loaded. The design elements are quite intricate and enjoyable to examine closely. According to specialist Elias Ahonen, just 400 of this type were originally issued. A similar redeemed example sold for $840 in our November 2022 sale. 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 2013 Lealana Bitcoin series.
PCGS# 905959.
PCGS Population: 9; 3 finer.
