Lot 923
1849 Norris, Gregg & Norris, $5 Gold. Reeded Edge. The PCGS holder does not allow viewing of the edge, however, since this is the sole example graded MS-61 this must be the reeded edge variety. This example is well struck and problem-free and is loaded with mint lustre and exhibits rich golden-orange overtones. The highest graded and only Mint State example graded by this service. NGC has graded one MS-61 (same coin?). Popular and always in demand as collectors have long considered this coin the first of the California private gold coins. PCGS graded MS-61.
