2022 Alpen 0.005 Bitcoin Bar. Loaded. Firstbits 1J4WRiP7. Serial No. D176. Silver Plated Alloy. Proof (PCGS).

Loaded with 0.005 BTC. This issue was first announced in July 2002 and it carries the formidable "Half Million Satoshi" denomination, which is equivalent to 0.005 BTC. The design borrows from the Matterhorn theme first used on coins from the Alpen series in 2020. The reverse is decorated with a patten of Swiss crosses in homage to the country in which Alpen is based. This is an impressive and unprecedented offering from the Alpen series with deeply mirrored fields and expertly frosted design elements. This sale represents our very first offering of a bar from Alpen and is sure to be met with tremendous excitement. With strong results for bars from Casascius and Microsoul in our recent auctions, it is clear that this oversized format is experiencing greater appreciation from collectors. Certified as Proof by PCGS, this is one of only 200 bars originally struck, though an untold amount have likely been peeled and redeemed since. Also included with this Alpen bar is the original box and COA from Alpen. Public Address: 1J4WRiP7kSj1JqNf783tGESR4LQZDqgtDy
