This auction is for two lots:
Lot 1: Crypto Candle, new in original box. The candle is new condition and never lit, and the aroma is very nice. Box has some marks on corners from storage, but still in nice shape overall. This was a business that was around until I believe 2018. Each candle has a token encased in the wax. Once the candle was burned, the numeric token could be redeemed for .1 to 1 Bitcoin. The company is no longer around, and the website appears to be no longer active. There are still other social media pages active if you google "crypto candle," but they do not appear to be updated. A very rare piece.
Ebay has one that I can find with a listing price of $599.99: https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=m570.l1313&_nkw=cryptocandle&_sacat=0

Lot 2: Silver Card precious metal Babe Ruth trading card. These were produced in the early 90's by The Money Co. This card was a limited edition run of 15,000 for Babe Ruth. Encased in the card is a 1oz .999 Silver coin with Babe Ruth on the front. Please note photos as the coin does have some tarnishing on the coin, but the card and corners are in very nice shape.

Thank you for the bid. I have a set of these, but a few duplicates so I decided to raffle one. Different iconic players have cards in limited edition numbers like the Ruth card. Look at the pics and details on the back of the card, and try Googling more information. I believe the estate of Babe Ruth was involved in these limited edition cards.

After reading a bit about this item it seems that they are a company from the states and at the very bottom of the item description of their ebay auction it states you must be from the united states to be able to redeem the prize. So those who are not from the states can not claim the prize if they burn the candle to reveal the token which you would need to go to their site to tell them the code you have? Also they went out of business so you can not claim the token correct? So it is just for nostalgic purposes to own this piece of bitcoin history. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

The company appears to be no longer be in business, so I would consider redemption odds at 0.0%.
