Redeemed 2013 Lealana 0.1 Bitcoin. Firstbits 1GdHLvbk. Serial No. 1382. No Buyer Funded, Green Address. Brass. MS-67 (ICG)
Redeemed and Non-Loaded. Featured is a green firstbits address and a serialized hologram sticker, though the "Buyer Funded" etching on the hologram is notably absent. Just four distinct varieties are reported for this issue in Elias Ahonen's Encyclopedia including Non-Serialized Black Address, Serialized Black Address, Buyer Funded Black Address, and (Buyer Funded) Green Address. The present combination, however goes unlisted and is incredibly desirable. The Buyer Funded format was introduced circa May 2014 in response to new federal requirements from the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FINCEN). Under the new format, buyers of these Lealana coins were responsible for sending the cryptocurrency to the coin's address themselves at a later time. While the first 100 coins released under this format still used the original black firstbits, the words BUYER FUNDED were clearly etched into the hologram sticker. Once these black firstbits were used up, Lealana began using green firstbits to denote this new generation of coinage. This coin is evidently a rare transitional piece pairing a new green firstbits address with an old-style hologram without the BUYER FUNDED etching.

Estimate: $200
