2016 BTCC "Poker Chip" 0.1 Bitcoin. Loaded. Firstbits 1K8UH6XNd. Serial No. B01080. Series C. Clay Composite. MS-69 (PCGS).
Loaded with 0.1 BTC. We note that the date it incorrectly listed as "2017" on the PCGS label. This is, in fact, an exciting offering from the debut 2016 issue of the type which represents one of just 6 examples at PCGS, and none are graded higher. It is one of just 1,200 coins struck and over 25% have been peeled and redeemed. A similar MS-69 (PCGS) example sold for $17,400 in our November 2024 sale. These "poker chips" were first issued in 2016 by the bitcoin exchange BTCC in six denominations ranging 1K to 500K "bits". Each denomination is color-coded and represents a fraction of a bitcoin including white 1K (0.001 BTC), red 5K (0.005 BTC), blue 10K (0.01 BTC), green 25K (0.025 BTC), black 100K (0.1 BTC), and purple 500K (0.5 BTC). Most were offered as part of six-coin sets containing one of each denomination, though customers also had the option of ordering custom configurations or bulk 20-chip rolls. Intended as an affordable and fun way of participating in the cryptocurrency market, these BTCC poker chips remain incredibly popular among both sophisticated bitcoin collectors and those just dipping their toes into this exciting category.
