What's the deal with the black address? I'm not sure of the veracity of the claims below, but my guess is that Stack's Bowers got their information from YouTube:
"Only 2,000 Lealana 0.1 Bitcoins were issued in silver, and this buyer-funded example with a black address is a great rarity, one of only 10 issued. It is considered part of the limited Series 1 Lealana coins, offered before the address color was changed to green in May 2014 to comply with regulations."

Also, would you look at that sale price, WTAF?! :)

Whatever the facts are (and members feel free to comment with factual info) it's undisputable that this is a beautiful coin, and something of a rarity.

Just wanted to clarify on these, these are not limited to 10 in anyway.. there are lot more of these in existence..

Do we know how many, or if they are rarer than not?
Thanks!

To me they are definitely rarer than the other silvers or brass tenths, but the way they have been marketed with a mintage of 10-15-20 even 25, I can guarantee that they are more than 50..

Thanks for this info, Agrawas

In light of new info posted in this thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5415111.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5415111.0) I have lowered opening bid and bid increase minimums in OP. If there are no bids in 24 hours, I'll lock the thread and repost at a later date. Thanks!
