A growing presence

Stack's Bowers' BTC auctions debuted in 2021 with a Lealana 0.1 BTC coin selling for $33,600. Since then, consignments have expanded to Casascius, Lealana, Satori Poker Chips, BTCC coins, and more. 1HoDLCLUB pieces first appeared in Spring 2023 and have returned across multiple Showcase auctions.

The November 2025 results continue that momentum, underscoring steady collector demand across different materials and denominations. Earlier highlights include a 45gr Fine Gold .999 1HoDLCLUB Gold Poker Chip that drew outsized attention in August 2023.

Why the PCGS holders matter

All four lots were graded and encapsulated by PCGS. Seeing the PCGS holder signals that independent experts have verified the condition and authenticity—an essential factor for bidders seeking confidence in high-demand crypto collectibles.

We are grateful to the collectors who acquired 1HoDLCLUB pieces at release and later consigned them to major auctions. Their enthusiasm helps place our work in front of a global audience and strengthens the legitimacy of physical Bitcoin collectibles within renowned venues like Stack's Bowers.

PCGS and The 1HoDLCLUB Mint

Collectors can now have 1HoDLCLUB pieces graded by PCGS, opening wider access to authentication, population reports, and trusted auction placement around the globe.

PCGS, known formally as the Professional Coin Grading Service, stands as a revered institution in the realm of coin grading and authentication. For decades, PCGS has served as the trusted beacon of expertise for collectors worldwide, offering a secure sanctuary for their beloved pieces since its inception in 1986.

PCGS branding

It is with immense pride and excitement that we announce a groundbreaking development: collectors can now have their 1HoDLCLUB collectibles graded by PCGS! This milestone marks a significant step towards embracing a broader audience of collectors and speaks volumes about the work of the 1HoDLCLUB.

Thank you to MinerJones for keeping the community informed about all the items accepted for grading and for the insights that contributed to this article. The PCGS website allows you to view the collectibles already graded, along with their grades, quantities, and photos when provided.

PCGS graded 1HoDLCLUB collectibles

For optimal preservation of your 1HoDLCLUB collectibles, we highly recommend sending them to PCGS for grading as soon as possible after receiving the items. Different service options are available, ranging from regular service (4–5 months, $40) to express (1–1.5 months, $70) and walkthrough service (about 1 week, $150).

PCGS service pricing

PCGS grading is essential if you intend to consign one of your collectibles for auction at a rare coin auction house such as Stack's Bowers. Some grading services become unavailable if your coins exceed certain values during auction. For example, if a 5oz GENESIS bar has been graded and sold for over $2,500, future collectors will need to use the "express" service instead of the regular one.

PCGS operates across the US, Europe, Asia, and China, allowing collectors to submit items to the nearest branch or directly via walkthrough services. For those who prefer concierge support, MinerJones—an early supporter of 1HoDLCLUB—can help by receiving collectibles, submitting them for grading, and returning them once complete.

Thank you to everyone for taking the time to read this article. As we approach the fourth year of 1HoDLCLUB, every milestone confirms the quality of the work being done here. Your support and trust make it all possible, and we are grateful to PCGS for the honor.

Stack's Bowers and The 1HoDLCLUB Mint

How Stack's Bowers became a recurring showcase for 1HoDLCLUB collectibles, from the first 0.1 BTC Lealana auction to ongoing appearances featuring Bitcoin Casino pieces and rare gold chips.

For those unfamiliar, Stack's Bowers Galleries, established in 1933, is America's oldest rare coin auction house. Over the years, Stack's Bowers Galleries has auctioned many of the rarest coins and most valuable collections ever assembled.

In 2021, Stack's Bowers announced its first-ever auction of a BTC collectible, becoming the first major auction house to offer a BTC collectible. The inaugural piece was a 2013 Lealana 0.1 Bitcoin coin in Silver, which sold for a final price of $33,600.

Lealana 0.1 Bitcoin coin

Since then, Stack's Bowers has organized eight different auctions featuring BTC and other collectibles. Each auction showcases a variety of crypto collectibles. Following the first auction, the collections primarily included coins from Casascius and Lealana. From June 2022, Satori Poker Chips and BTCC coins were introduced, followed by offerings from Cryptoimperator, Denarium, Anarcoins, and Alpencoins. The Spring 2023 auction featured 1HoDLCLUB collectibles consigned by collectors.

The first 1HoDLCLUB collectibles auctioned were from the Bitcoin Casino collection, including poker chips in Brass, Copper, and Clay, each loaded with 0.0005 BTC. There were also two 1oz Fine Silver GENESIS coins, each loaded with 0.0021 BTC. It was an honor to see our collectibles garner such interest from collectors.

Since then, 1HoDLCLUB collectibles have been a staple at these auctions. A highlight was the August 2023 auction, where a rare 45gr Fine Gold .999 1HoDLCLUB Gold Poker Chip was featured, attracting significant collector interest.

A heartfelt thank you to Stack's Bowers and, above all, to the collectors—none of this would be possible without you.
