Privately minted in 1853 when many California gold coins were produced before the new U. Mint standardized coinage, this exceptionally well preserved Liberty Wreath Octagon coin is graded Mint State 67 by NGC. The gold weight contained in these coins were considered fractional and minute that the coins were referred to as “tokens” rather than coins. Most of these privately issued California gold rush era coins are extremely rare today, as most were melted down and converted to official coins by the U. The obverse features the iconic Lady Liberty design, whilst the reverse depicts a beaded edge and a wreath whilst the writing in the center reads, “California Gold” which is indicative of the period of time during the California Gold Rush in which this coin was created and intended for circulation. The item pictured is the item you would receive.

1884 CALIFORNIA FRACTIONAL GOLD, ARMS OF CALIF / MS67 NGC, PEG LEG BEAR. Peg-legged bear error(die crack). Very crude engraved dies used, with doubling showing in several places. Die clashing on the reverse from the obverse, mainly from the bear. And we have a rotated die also. The only one we have ever seen. NGC-certified, genuine, solid gold, and graded MS67. NGC shows this one as Top Pop of only six others certified for this variety. Of the 29 varieties of 1884, Arms of Calif Gold, and a total of 129 pieces, only 2 are certified MS67, and none higher. That equates to a mere 1.5% in MS67. Just a fantastic find overall when it comes to Cal gold, showing how primitive things were back then. Other Fractionals & Tokens. Vintage Gold Mining Jewelry.
