The coin with this number is currently listed on E-bay for $750. I wonder if it still has bitcoins on it? LOL

For the first time in 13 years, the Casascius Coins bitcoins have come to life — two transactions of 1000 BTC were made.
Casascius Coins are a cryptocurrency embodied in physical form, a collectible item — such bitcoin coins appeared in 2011.
Visually, these are metallic discs with a hologram, into which a carrier with the private key from the bitcoin wallet is embedded.
To obtain the bitcoins hidden in Casascius Coins, one must tear off the hologram and use the key — after that, the Casascius Coins become just a piece of metal, and the bitcoins go to a regular wallet.
It is known that there are 17 holders who have concentrated 36,467 bitcoins, sealed in Casascius Coins.
