🎨 AUTHENTIC Banksy 2012 NYC Residency Coin – SEALED – REEDED EDGE (NOT A REPRO) 🎨
A rare opportunity to own a genuine artifact from Banksy’s legendary 2013 New York residency—one of the most talked-about street art events of the modern era.
This is an original Banksy residency coin, preserved exactly as found—still sealed in its original plastic.
🪙 What Makes This One Special:
✔️ REAL reeded edge (distinct ridged/milled edge)
➤ The easiest way to separate authentic coins from the many smooth-edge reproductions
✔️ Original metal coin – substantial feel, gold-toned finish
✔️ Factory sealed – untouched, protected, and increasingly hard to find in this condition
⚠️ Important:
This is NOT one of the common replicas—those typically have smooth edges.
This piece has the correct reeded edge used on the original coins.
đź§ Why Collectors Want This:
Banksy’s NYC residency wasn’t just an art event—it was a city-wide phenomenon, with limited physical items like this coin becoming instant collectibles.
Released in extremely limited numbers
Often lost, opened, or separated from original packaging
Highly sought after by:
