CashFusion of 11 BCH with a 6.25 BCH coinbase reward! (Throwaway seed below.)
The miner of block 721997 (9 Jan) sent their reward to 1 intermediate a few days later, and then within a couple hours (today) it fused directly with my single 11 BCH coin (listed on top of inputs).
Are there any stats on coinbase CashFusions? Technically an intermediate was used, so it may not have been the miner.
A couple weeks ago I posted here & here at r/Bitcoincash that there's a minimum on the order of a thousand dollars, however that's proven to be false. I had to do more testing. I managed to fuse about $12 using Pokket.cash. Beforehand I also fused a $4 coin within Electron Cash using all default settings, within a couple hours.
The 11 BCH ($4k) seed was:

I had it set to Fan-Out Fusion mode with Self-Fusing. It did a 1⇢10. Before I noticed, it immediately proceeded to double-fuse within a single txn (1⇢12 & 1⇢13). Maybe there could be an option to only fuse once/day. In that wallet I started with 6 BCH but that didn't fuse, so tried 7, 8, 9, 10 & 11 BCH & they all failed (default settings within a couple hours). Then I tried Self-Fusing which failed, but I think that only works with at least 2 coins. Then I also applied Fan-Out and it finally fused (within a couple hours).
A 6 BCH seed (Jan 10) was:

That one fused within a couple hours using only default settings. Another one (~$4) was:

All used m/44'/145'/0' (default derivation path). Throwing away seeds might be a bad idea, but I figure showing off 1 or 2 is ok. They may not be safe if someone's wallet tries to send money to them. Also it partially ruins the fusions they were involved in.
Apologies to u/_pokkst & u/imaginary_username for insisting there's a minimum. u/don2468 helped with a couple examples. I was probably just having bad-luck, and increasing amounts happened to work, for a while. Using Fan-out in Wallet Fusion Settings helped.
I've released an update to AutoCove (EC Script plugin) with asm & dark-theme support, an op-counter and TXID lookup. However it still needs another update.
Edit: It turns out this isn't the first time I've fused with a coinbase reward. There was also this fusion where my 6.19 BCH (on top) fused (within half an hour) with the 6.25 BCH reward from block 719378. I just never noticed before!
