How many of these coins have been/will be sold?
In the OP it says that less than 100 were made but do you have any figures on the total number of these coins in supply? What will happen to the rest of the coins that you aren't planning on selling?
These are the last 5 that will be sold from BTCC, as that's all we have left from the original batch.
Of the first 100 coins mined that were Artists Proofs, 97 were of this gold-plated brass variety. 3 were made into titanium coins.
You can clearly see all 4 of the blocks mined, in Anduck's BTCC Coin Tracker, for block numbers 394,051; 394,111; 405,240; and 405,251; totaling 100 coins:
https://anduck.net/bitcoin/btcc_coins.htmlAll of these coins have been given/sold to friends, family, and employees. Only these last 5 remain with BTCC, to sell at this auction.
and in fact, about 30 of them have already been redeemed, in our early testing, or by people who chose to redeem them.
I've also added this clarification in the OP:
*
Bitcoin content: Loaded with 1.0 BTC, freshly mined from BTCC Pool in early 2016 (coinbase transaction)
