2013 Lealana 0.1 Bitcoin. Loaded. Firstbits 1BTCMXaA. Serial No. 37. Black Address. Silver. MS-68 (ANACS). Loaded with 0.1 BTC. This silver denomination is undoubtedly a collector favorite and subject to a relentless demand that far outpaces supply. According to Elias Ahonens cryptocurrency <em>Encyclopedia</em>, 2,000 Lealana 0.1 Bitcoins were issued in silver across all varieties. However, this Black Address, Serialized example is a notable rarity with only 490 issued for the variety, many of which have since been peeled and redeemed. It represents the limited run of pre-funded Lealana coins, offered before the Buyer Funded format was instituted in May 2014 to comply with regulations. This particular specimen is also remarkable for the low serial number 37 and the desirable yellow-label ANACS holder. It is presented as part of the Mindtrip Collection, which was assembled in the dawn of the physical bitcoin category. A similar 0.1 BTC sold for $15,600 in our April 2022 auction.<p><p>It was issued on a 25mm planchet of ¼ ounce of .999 fine silver and minted by Northwest Territorial Mint. On the obverse is the Bitcoin currency symbol at center surrounded by a legend listing the denomination, composition, and the Hawaiian phrase "IKAIKA I HELU NUI" that translates as "Strength in Numbers." This phrase is also featured on the Casascius coin series but is listed there in Latin as "Vires In Numeris". The reverse features a holographic sticker with the serial number at left and the public address visible through a rectangular window. Beneath the holographic sticker is the private address that allows the owner to redeem the value of the bitcoin once the sticker is peeled away.
