Description
Flawless MS-70 (PCGS) Unfunded Rarity Check 0.01 BTC
Desirable Serial Number 8
Unfunded 2022 Rarity Check "VIBGYOR" 0.01 Bitcoin. Serial No. 8. Orange Variety. Gilt Silver. MS-70 (PCGS).
Unfunded and non-loaded. Graded MS-70 (PCGS), this is one of the finest survivors from this issue. This coin also boasts an ultra-low serial #8 indicating it as one of the very first struck. The VIBGYOR series was announced by Rarity Check on the Bitcointalk.org forum in October 2022. This series takes inspiration from the color spectrum and is planned to be produced in a variety of colors. The present Orange variety was the first to be released. These coins were struck in 1oz of .999 fine silver and offered in two different denominations including 0.01 BTC and 0.001 BTC each with distinct finishes. On both denominations, the enigmatic portrait of Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto is the focal point on the obverse. This type is also remarkable for having the serial number printed in two different spots on the reverse as an extra security measure. The 0.01 BTC denomination is distinguished by satin 24k gold plating and boasts a mintage of just 100 pieces. The obverse legend features the famous Satoshi Nakamoto quote "Don't get it? Don't believe it? I don't have the time to explain it". On the reverse is the quote "Money is not rock, metal, or data. Money is trust in the system." This coin is also accompanied by the original Certificate of Authenticity from Rarity Check listing the coin information including the public address.
PCGS# 938567.
PCGS Population: 3; none finer.
