Keeping track of all the different Lealana coins gets kind of confusing, so here is the info/history of denominations, series, and variants, to provide details of the coin listed here and for reference as you build your collection.
Many collectors try to acquire most, buy very few can obtain at least one of ea denomination, series, and variant. (all info is subject to and according to online research and from direct sources at Lealana.)
History:
Lealana started making coins in 2013. All initial coins had Black first bits addresses visible under the hologram through the coin address window. All coins were sold funded, meaning loaded with either Bitcoin or Litecoin, by the manufacturer.
To date, only 2013 marked coins were sold, no 2014 ones were released.
As of the end of 2013/beginning of 2014, Lealana stopped selling loaded coins due to government regulations, just as Casascius did. (they were accused of selling digital currency, which all currency sales would mean a business would have to be classified as a "money services" business, therefore subject to special licensing and highly scrutinized reporting practices. Even Casascius determined and decided not worth the effort or the risk. )
They started selling only "buyer Funded" coins, in which the coin has the words "BUYER FUNDED" laser engraved on the hologram by the manufacturer. Green first bits addresses were created to be visible under the hologram through the coin address window, since only "buyer funded" coins were to be made to sell. These were designed to be assembled securely by Lealana (not a kit format) and for the end collector to fund the coin address themselves if desired. (like an empty piggybank.) All buyer funded coins were to be sold only marked "buyer funded" to differentiate.
Lealana's Loophole:
Lealana did release some of these later Green address "Green Label" coins technically as a " FUNDED" version, (but not in the traditional sense).
You will see some "Green Label" coins loaded without being laser marked "buyer Funded". Basically it's a loophole as to how they got the funded ones released in spite of regulatory issues. Lealana did not and does not sell these series coins loaded to the general public. Some dealers/customers wanted them funded still and not laser marked, so to avoid the regulatory issues of selling loaded coins, Lealana had the customers send the actual digital Btc or Ltc to the provided coin address for the funding of the coins by the customer, so Lealana does not have to fund them directly. No security concern to the collector, as Lealana therefore still fully protects the security of the coin private key by factory assembling them and not shipping until confirmed funded. The end result is therefore basically the same as a factory funded coin, however with a Green address now, not a black one like the original coins that were factory funded.

Ser 3, Funded serialized "green label" .Approx 5000+ minted. Ser 3 variants have a printed serial number on the coin (at 12 o'clock position), and the color of the address in the firstbits window is NOW GREEN. There were a limited number produced funded and a larger number produced "buyer funded", in which the coin has the words "BUYER FUNDED" laser engraved on the hologram by the manufacturer.

25 Ltc:
Approx all series cumulative total of 500 minted.
Ser 1, Funded, serialized, "black label".
25 Ltc: Funded, non serialized, "black Label".
Approx 70 or so were serialized for matching sets of 3 coins (5,10,25 Ltc in a display box). The bal were not serialized.
.10 Btc brass:
Approx all series cumulative total of 10,000 minted.
Ser 1, Funded, serialized, "black label". Approx 500+ minted (cumulative of funded and buyer funded. (See below under rare variants for buyer funded.)
Ser 2, Funded, serialized, "green label". Approx 9500 minted (cumulative of funded and buyer funded.)
Ser 2, Non funded, Laser marked "buyer Funded", serialized "green label".
The ser 1 coins were to ea have a printed serial number on ea, ranging from #1-500. To further complicate things, of the original 500 numbered holograms, Lealana ended up using some of the upper number holograms for some of the Ser 2 green label coins. The black writing on the 500 ser 1 coins is contained on the private key label visible underneath the hologram thru the "window", which is what makes them a ser 1 coin and assures authenticity of ser 1 coins.
Therefore, you will see Ser 1, black label coins ranging from 1-10,000 on the serial numbers. (even though only 500 were made and only a few hundred or less were known to be released.) We consider the "low" number coins to be the rarest as they are from the intended 1-500 hologram stock. The upper numbers in the 501-10,000 range are still very rare and still Ser 1 black label from the orig 500 made.

Here is the info on the Rare Variants for reference.
Rare Variants:
1 Ltc:
Ser 1, Non funded, black label, "Buyer Funded".
Yes, "Buyer funded". There were very few leftover stock coins that despite Lealana stating they would only release Ser 1 black label coins as factory funded and if after Jan 2014, would require buyers to prefund them before shipping, did get released. These were sold in a few larger "groups" of random coins, and did in fact get lasered as "Buyer funded". These are very rare and to date, only 40 or so are known to exist.
5 Ltc:
Ser 1, Non funded, black label, "Buyer Funded" . (same description as above.) However, only 100 or so are known to exist.
10 Ltc,
Ser 1, Non funded, black label, "Buyer Funded" . (same description as above.) However, only 100 or so are known to exist.
10 Ltc:
Error coin. 1,000 minted with an error (the coins did not have an indentation for the private key so have a raised bump visible on the sticker). Sets of two come in a commemorative box with certificates of authenticity (COA's).
10 Ltc:
Ser 1, black label, Funded, "Non Lasered" ring. Most 10 Ltc coins were made with the "lasered" security ring around hologram. Less were made, most at later dates, with just a standard hologram.
25 Ltc:
Ser 1, black label, Funded, "Non Lasered" ring. Most 25 Ltc coins were made with the "lasered" security ring around hologram. Very few were made, most at later dates, with just a standard hologram.
25 Ltc:
Ser 2, green label, "buyer funded". This may be the rarest Lealana coin ever made. Lealana was sold out of 25 Ltc coins prior to only selling buyer funded coins. Approx 5 leftover coins were sold after Jan 2014, and only 3 of them were made lasered "buyer funded", with a green address of course.
.10 Btc brass:
Ser 1, black label, funded. Any coin numbered 1-500 are the rarest as are from the orig 500 holograms made for the series. (coin #1 sold for $500 back when btc was $300) (see info above on .10 brass history, as it is a unique story.)
.10 Btc brass:
