A buyer peels the holo sticker when redeeming and imports into a client like blockchain.info and others. The public address may optionally be visible on the outside or just on a card for the buyer to reference.
Look at Casaacius or Lealana coins as examples. There are many similar coins out there in the Goods subforum. Title: Re: How do you make/redeem a physical Bitcoin?
