This might be old info, but here's what I know about the numbers.
how rare BitBills are:
20BTC: 181 (132 intact)
10BTC: 143 (97 intact)
5BTC: 144 (107 intact)
1BTC: 589 (492 intact)
As you can see in the photos, there are imperfections. In fact, no 2 are alike, each being handmade. Hologram placement, the laminating process, private key slip placement, each one is definitely unique in several ways. I am the original owner, and have not handled or circulated the BitBill since I opened the package on or about June 20, 2011.
It is funded, and intact. I have never opened a BitBill, but I understand that they can be redeemed.
