1849 Norris, Gregg & Norris (San Francisco) $5 Gold. Reeded edge. . AU Details, Mount Removed. The surface roughness probably traces to this coin's use as jewelry by some lucky early possessor. Still, much of the legends is readable, and there is even a fair amount of feather detail showing on the eagle. This is one of the earliest private-label gold coins struck from California-mined gold.
Estimated Value $5,000 - 5,500.
