1837-42 Christopher Bechtler, 5 DOLLARS CAROLINA, 134 gr. 21 carats, with star. K-20, Rarity 4. PCGS graded MS-60. A hint of gold tone on the obverse, the reverse with slightly deeper orange-gold toning over original mint luster. Rather sharply struck for this scarce early Territorial gold coin. The designs are basic and simple, so that anyone with a degree of literacy could weigh this coin and know the gold value in a transaction. Such information was critical at the time, and once tested and confirmed to be genuine made the value easy to ascertain. Pop 1; 2 finer in 61. PCGS # 10097 Estimated Value 12,000 - UP
