<B>1908<$20> No Motto, Wells Fargo MS66 PCGS.</B></I> Experts in various disciplines use the phrase "security through obscurity" to describe a situation wherein a target is largely insecure, but few threats to the target know of its existence. The vault doors that guarded the Wells Fargo Hoard would have done little if the government had moved to confiscate the double eagles, but the period of gold ownership restrictions expired long before the coins were revealed. This shining straw-gold coin has great eye appeal that stems from its great strike and pleasing luster. The surfaces have few marks for the grade.<BR><I>From The Hamburg-Sonoma Collection.</B></I>
