No, it didn't have any serial numbers, I checked. Still a breathtaking card, I did manage a redemption card this evening though...
Yeah, I'm guessin' so 
1 of 5 
YIKES I put it in a penny sleeve, but now I think a top loader too

Yeah, I'm guessin' so 1 of 5 YIKES I put it in a penny sleeve, but now I think a top loader too There were no etchings on it though, or embossing, so maybe just a different color card, still magnificent.

By blue sparkle do you mean cardano Sapphire refractor card. If so... holy shit
I pulled a blue sparkle Cardano card...BEAUTIFUL!!! stopped me in my tracks.
Congrats guys! I wonder if they've released any odds stats on pulling each specific type yet?
Well now that we know the total cases and the ratio of some of the cards, we can get a pretty good idea of what to expect.
Most packs have at least 1 holofoil and/or a crystal sparkle plus... the distribution seems pretty good overall.
Here are some of the ratios:
Base Card Parallels: Holofoil 1:1, Crystal Sparkle 1:2, Gemstone Refractor™ 1:10, Cryptocurrency Redemption Code 1:96, Meta-Rare Refractor™ 1:124
Beryl (orange) 1:149, Emerald 1:99, Amethyst 1:49, Ruby 1:25, Gold 1:10, Sapphire 1:5, Onyx 1:1
I suppose someone who can work the total cards and ratios could come up with a good idea what to expect.
2125 cases, 48 boxes per case, 10 cards per box.
1020000 cards in total. I think we subtract type from total then divide remainder by total cards per type to get odds.
1:96 redemption cards, (1020000 - 96 = 1019904 / 96) odds of pulling one = 1 in 10624
Odds of finding a redemption card are 1:96 packs or 1 redemption card per case. Thus there are 2125 redemption cards in total. So the odds of finding a redemption card is 1:480 cards, not 10624.

Received my series one 1st edition box today.
...Off into the cold storage she goes
Not sure what's inside of it, but the outside sure is nice to look at

The cards that I ordered off the internet showed up this morning. A box, inside a box, with 4 little box's... very nice attention to shipping. I had a nice ding on the biggest box, first thing that I thought, Great, gonna have some smashed cards now that won't grade worth a crap...BUT, not the case at all.
Takes awhile to get to the actual cards, they're well protected. And we'd all rather have that than damaged cards.
Can't wait to open some!!!'
*Edit: Just pulled a Emerald Elon Musk #28A #6/99
& a 3/149 Lambo I gotta say, these HIGH GLOSS cards are finer than frog's hair!!!

These refractor cards are super complex. I would say almost impossible to duplicate perfect. Multiple colors, foils, textured, numbered, thick cards. Really well done. Only problem is i put my boxes up in the closet and wasnt going to open them. What i learned was i have 0 self control. I opened them all. The thought of selling a box that may have a redemption card in it gives me anxiety.
Haha, to open or not to open.... I will be opening mineWith only 2125 cases available, these could become rare unopened, especially an unopened case
Indeed
Which leads me to this question....
Will there be a list of the redemptions?
To add.. if there is, will it indicate if they have been redeemed yet?
You guys don't want anything left to the imagination.
At some point we will be posting the payment addresses for the various types of crypto rewards. So you'll be able to at least see the outflows of the various amounts.

All Currency cards are foil-stamped with the Cardsmiths logo on the back. The foil also has a particular pattern to it.
Cardsmiths cards are also much thicker than most other cards. Even the base cards.
The Gemstone cards in particular are refractor style cards with laminate and UV coating. The serial-numbering and the raised UV gemstone pattern pattern would be nearly impossible to duplicate. I say this because it took us almost 6 months and $10's of thousands of dollars worth of sample runs to figure out how to get the gemstone pattern effect just right.
Ultimately, almost anything can be counterfeited, but we did as much as any company could to ensure that we made them as counterfeit-resistant as possible.
Much , Appreciate it JUPI . My colleague might have more Questions For Me , which i ask here.
Thank YOu
