Description

Redeemed 2013 Casascius 0.1 Bitcoin. Firstbits 1AgxWBoy. Series 3. Silver. MS-67 PL (ICG).
Redeemed and non-loaded. A visually stunning and desirable relic from the early period of physical crypto. Specialist Elias Ahonen writes in his Encyclopedia of Physical Bitcoins and Cryptocurrencies that "on top of being the smallest denomination Casascius coin, this [0.1 BTC] was also the last. Had Casascius continued the production of coins into later years, it is likely that he would have moved towards smaller denominations". Only about 800 were produced and the mintage was distributed amongst a relatively small group of collectors. Today, these silver 0.1 BTC remain prized and seldom are offered publicly, whether loaded or redeemed. Public Address: 1AgxWBoyL9P6JckA1EZVvP1oiFbXs78bRP
