The eye-catching ʻIʻiwi (pronounced “ee-EE-vee”) was once one of the Hawaiian Islands’ most common forest birds. In Hawaiian mythology, the demi-god Maui particularly loved the native forest birds and painted them in bright reds and golds.
Maui made the ʻIʻiwi especially colorful, with a unique call that resonated throughout the forest. The adult ʻIʻiwi is mostly fiery red, with black wings and tail and a long, curved, salmon-colored bill used primarily for drinking nectar. The contrast of the red and black plumage with surrounding green foliage makes the ʻiʻiwi one of the most easily seen Hawaiian birds. Large colonies exist on the islands of Hawaii, Maui, and Kauai, common in wet forests at high elevations. These birds prefer to keep hidden among the leaves.
This NFT is part of the 999 Fine Art Collection (each a “999NFT”) and has the following features:
ART & GOLD: Upon purchase, in addition to the digital art this 999NFT represents, this 999NFT also represents the undivided “interim ownership” of one troy ounce of unrefined gold in the ground out of a balance remaining of 13,333 troy ounces of gold owned by Unique Art Concepts, LLC, Wyoming, at a mine in Nevada, USA (the “Interim Gold”). Any subsequent legal sale or transfer of a 999NFT’s ownership includes the transfer of all rights this 999NFT represents, including the rights to the Interim Gold pursuant to our current Terms of Purchase as posted and updated from time to time on this Website.
REDEMPTION: In addition to the foregoing features, all 999NFTs include a time-limited, specific right to exchange the Interim Gold for physical delivery of a uniquely serial-numbered, one troy ounce bar of 999.9 fine gold (the “Physical Gold”) pursuant to the 999NFT’s Terms of Purchase and its Redemption provisions exercisable only by the then current lawful owner of the 999NFT. Redemption is exercisable only during the “Redemption Period” which by default commences November 16, 2026 and lasts through January 31, 2029.
Other Redemption Options are available at additional cost:
ACCELERATED REDEMPTION: For those that prefer to have the Physical Gold in hand sooner than our default Redemption Period, we offer a choice of Early Redemption Add-Ons that can be purchased at the time of the initial purchase of a 999NFT.
ROLLOVER (“EXTENSION”) TO REDEEM: During the Redemption Period, the legal owner of each 999NFT, in lieu of requesting delivery of the Physical Gold, can instead elect to pay a fee and request to have their 999NFT “burned”** in exchange for a new 999NFT comprised of the identical digital art of the burned 999NFT but with a new Redemption Period set at a mutually agreed forward date for delivery of the Physical Gold (the “Rollover”).
Full details, terms and conditions necessary to exercise this Rollover will be posted in an amendment to the Terms of Purchase and excerpted on the Redemption page of our website prior to the commencement of the first available Redemption Period.
**A “burned” non-fungible token is deemed to be destroyed. Burned NFTs are sent to a verifiably un-spendable address, ultimately eliminating this NFT from any future transaction on the blockchain. Transactions leading up to the burn remain immutably on the blockchain ledger.
