1874 California Fractional Gold 50c BG-958 PCGS MS64 Octagonal Large Head Indian HR6


1874 California Fractional Gold 50c BG-958 PCGS MS64 High Rarity 6
A radiant and gorgeously preserved yellow-gold example of this rare California Small Denomination Gold variety. Double struck in the collar, rotated a couple of degrees clockwise (relative to the obverse) between strikes. The effect of the double strike is particularly dramatic on the letters in DOLLAR. The dies were later polished to efface CAL, creating the BG-958A variety.
