Identification notes

The engraved identifier is not a Bitcoin wallet address or private key. This is a historical custodial claim token, not a functioning bearer wallet with a verified balance or current redemption right. Auction funding descriptions, holder grades and serial numbers describe particular specimens, not every example; current wallet balances are not verified.

About the photographs

Matched photographs of the source auction specimen, used with specific Stack’s Bowers Galleries permission and linked website credit. Serial numbers, holder grades and historical loading describe the photographed specimen; no present Bitcoin balance has been verified. Embedded catalogue photographs are shown at their native resolution.
