Absolutely stunning results! All things considered, it's honestly surprising that they aren't worth even more than they are. Congrats, Daniel! Happy the collection landed in the hands of someone who truly appreciated and conserved these little treasures.
In the early 70s my grandfather gave me 6 of these coins, when I joined the army in 72 I left them in the care of my mother. After that I forgot about them. When she passed away in the mid 90s I looked into what might have happened to them to no avail. Wish I still had them.
I bought my ex wife as a gift a 22k gold necklace that weighed 2.5oz ($1k) - Looked like something Cleopatra would wear. Man I wish I woulda bought it for myself. She be wearing a $6500 necklace.
Fantastic. Those are some sweet California Gold coins. I'm glad you sent those into PCGS to get them slabbed. I do like that Indian Head design as well. Thanks for sharing Daniel.
Man these are fantastic ! I absolutely LOVE seeing these coins. It has to be hard to let go of such amazing historical coinage. I love those octagonal Indian head coins too. Wow!!
Love the California fractionals. I believe they were hand struck and the primitive look to them is so cool. Call it my bias but considering the low populations and historical nature I don't know why the values aren't higher.
I have, all the ones that scan coins that are created in Japan and China will give you misleading information and they lie in their ads to get you to use them.
I bought my first California gold from you Daniel and I love it! These are definitely tiny coins though! I'll be looking for some of these on your site!
Beautiful coins plus what history!! Just awesome history in your hands. I will buy them! Take them out every other day to look at them and ponder the history behind each coin
I have dug enough gold to make a coin. I taught myself the refining proccess and minting proccess. Panning sluicibg and dredging...metal detecting and general prospecting.. its hard to find gold someone else doesnt already own. In 1848 in Ca gold fields you could pull 12 pounds of nugets by hand in a months work from the gravel flats near sutters mill. In fact recorded by many who did so that first year. I find much more easily aquired and refined gold urban prospecting. E waste. Jewlery. Art. [I refine more silver than gold...its EVERUWHERE!! But same thing ive dug enough galena to mill a coin ....but most of the galena ive found was waste pile leavings only once in nearly 50 years of looking did i find an ore pocket by the sign in the rock... and that was a road cut in a closed to mineral entry district that played out 100 years ago [ they never did get it all] That is a sweet set of coins. Did you already sell the reject?
I have like 5 graded ngc ones , but 1 is in an older air holder , it comes up on ngc but with no picture ??? And another one a 1/2 bear token which are faked a lot , it scans authentic with a picture , but it just doesn’t look. Right ?? Do you think ngc has graded some fakes ?? Or am I overthinking ??
I would say you got a very positive result on that submission for sure. Would be a great item for a California museum with a gold rush display section to obtain as a group. Wondering if it could possibly be sold to a museum like that, or someone (deep pockets collector!) to purchase as a lot as you bought it, to then loan to a museum for that purpose. I think even non coin collectors could really appreciate and enjoy these that way.
Daniel, How awesome that you give God the glory! Continue that, and He'll be sure to continue blessing you. You're certainly a blessing to all of us. Happy New Year!!
I remember the first time I saw one of those coins in person. They really are shockingly small. It's kind of surprising that they weren't all lost because of that. Thanks for sharing those tiny treasures!
Imagine trying to use these coins for commerce. So tiny and if happened to drop one it was probable a major task to find them again. I remember dropping at early half dime in my kitchen and I was never able to find it again. It probably got under or between a cabinet and was lost probably until the new home owners remodeled the kitchen...LOL
I dropped a coin in my kitchen once and the only way I found it was to run my finger up along a shelf where it had bounced off the ground and up on the inner ledge of the cabinet. unreal.

Congratulations Daniel, wonderful history preserved.

Buddy Ebsen, TV's Jed Clampett, had one of the world's premier collections of California gold issues.
Nice coins. Thanks for sharing. 😀
Anacs grades significant token coins. And their new holders are pretty attractive. Great results overall!
BITD Bowers & Merena auctioned off a complete set of California fractional gold, these are very tough to find above XF, nice coins,🙏
Wow. Color me green with envy! I hope you start a bidding war at auction with that BG-703!
I love it man!
I like them all a one of a kind they are all unique.
Congratulations

Yeah - surprised not $500 - $1k plus on every one of them
TrueView thanks !
Merry Christmas Daniel
Very cool thank you for sharing!
Would have been interesting for scale to place one next to a modern penny, nickel or dime for reference.
History at it's best, great coins
Cool stuff
If the coins could talk we would get some stories of what they paid for and who had them in their pocket.
We have the same favorite, the 1876 , mine in 64. Thought I was the only one of us.
They are very small,I have one also ,just about lost it once
Can you review some Apps that identify coins
I have, all the ones that scan coins that are created in Japan and China will give you misleading information and they lie in their ads to get you to use them.
You really do have the best job
You have no idea what I had to do, legally, to have this “job”
I bought my first California gold from you Daniel and I love it! These are definitely tiny coins though! I'll be looking for some of these on your site!
Beautiful coins plus what history!! Just awesome history in your hands. I will buy them! Take them out every other day to look at them and ponder the history behind each coin
Cool coins Daniel. First time I’ve seen many of these
I have one, they are super tiny. don't sneeze or they will float away.
I have dug enough gold to make a coin. I taught myself the refining proccess and minting proccess.

That is a sweet set of coins. Did you already sell the reject?
Beautiful set
"halo" around stars sign of being cleaned?
Not always
Those are nice coins Daniel
Fascinating! Thanks for sharing. How did you get a hold of 17?
I bought 53. I own a coin shop and built a business and coin channel, so people trust I pay fair and sell to me.
Fractional gold coins are by far the coolest to me
I have like 5 graded ngc ones , but 1 is in an older air holder , it comes up on ngc but with no picture ??? And another one a 1/2 bear token which are faked a lot , it scans authentic with a picture , but it just doesn’t look. Right ?? Do you think ngc has graded some fakes ?? Or am I overthinking ??

How do I tell if a coin is 1857 Indian Head California real?
It's round with a single star & California gold on the obverse.
It must have a denomination or it's a token.
I remember the first time I saw one of those coins in person. They really are shockingly small. It's kind of surprising that they weren't all lost because of that. Thanks for sharing those tiny treasures!
Thats alot of coinage to send out for grading ! Hopefully you sent that out and got them back with USPS certified mailing ! Great video !
2nd time i get to say congratulations in like 2 days good for you😊😊
The history behind those is as fun as the coins themselves
