Identification notes

This is a source-attributed 2016 entry, separate from the inherited 2017 auction type TBA-0028. Calendar year and pre-/post-fork serial cohorts have not been independently reconciled. Numista gives 40 mm, while the seller lists 39 mm with contradictory units. The seller weight of 0.016 grams is not adopted or converted by inference. No year mintage or current BTC/BCH balance is established.

Maker reference images attributed to 2016 by Numista; reverse serial 000001. This is a different example from the auctioned serial 012752 and does not prove that specimen’s date or current balance.
