Representing perhaps the most important offering of physical crypto to hit the market in recent years, the sale features more than 120 lots boasting a current intrinsic value well over a half-million dollars.
This landmark session is anchored by classic, blue-chip rarities from the iconic Casascius, BTCC, and Lealana series, alongside low-mintage modern issues from MyBits, Satori, Polymerbit, 1HoDLCLUB, VIP Bitcoins, Denarium, Finite By Design, Freedom Bitcoin, Ballet, Crypto Imperator, and others. The Casascius category features a premier type set of silver and brass denominations spanning the 0.1 BTC, 0.5 BTC, and 1 BTC levels, highlighted by an extremely rare, Redeemed Casascius 10 BTC crossing the block in the second half of the session.
The offering continues through the highly sought-after BTCC series, featuring an assortment of rare Poker Chip and Titanium issues. This group is headlined by an incredible six-coin Poker Chip set in its original presentation case, hand-signed by series creator Bobby Lee. A comprehensive selection of individual BTCC Poker Chips will also be presented across all denominations, including the elusive Black 0.1 BTC and the rare Purple 0.5 BTC.
These foundational early series are capped by a powerful selection of Lealana coins. Highlights include an original, three-coin set #161 containing the 2013 0.1 BTC, 0.25 BTC, and 0.5 BTC denominations with matching Certificates of Authenticity (COAs). Additionally, a 2013 “Gold B” 1 BTC makes its first market appearance of the year as one of the most prized rarities in the entire crypto-numismatic category. Bidders will also have a historic opportunity to acquire serial number 1 of the 2025 Niue Island 0.001 BTC in silver, which is celebrated as the very first legal tender physical bitcoin ever struck.
Beyond the crypto coins and notes, the auction features a selection of important early crypto memorabilia including the debut Issue #1 of Bitcoin Magazine alongside a consecutive run of Issues #9-15. The sale also marks the firm’s first-ever offering of crypto trading cards by Topps / Allen & Ginter, a crossover category expected to generate strong interest from traditional baseball and sports card collectors.
“We are extremely proud to present another landmark offering in this category as part of our June 2026 sale,” said James McCartney, Director of Consignments and Numismatics. “Many of these pieces have ultra-low mintages and tremendous rarity that easily rivals some of the most legendary issues in traditional numismatics.”
