Identification notes

This retained ID covers the inherited 2017 auction-catalogued type; fork status is unassigned. Numista reports serial cohorts 000001–030500 and 030501–050500, but their calendar-year mapping is not independently reconciled. The related photographs show serial 000001, not a demonstrated 2017 specimen. See TBA-0203 for the separately source-attributed 2016 entry. No annual production or current BTC/BCH balance is inferred.

Related-issue reference: a 2016 pre-fork Satori chip, serial 000001. It illustrates the original design, not an exact 2017 specimen. Current balance is not verified.
