Lot 1368 - 1872/1 Lg. Indian Head-Value and Cal BG-868 PCGS MS63
1872/1 Lg. Indian Head-Value and Cal in Wreath. BG-868. Bright yellow gold with deeper highlights. Nicely mirrored fields show the heavily frosted Indian motif to full advantage, but with minor hairlines as always. Perhaps not a great rarity in the overall scheme of things, but it certainly is pleasing to find BG-868 so nicely preserved.

Maker: Christopher Mohrig; Obverse: Large Indian head takes up much of the obverse field. 13 five-pointed stars around, date below. Reverse: A. Wreath tips closed at top, 10 berries left, four pairs plus single inner berries at top and bottom, 11 berries right. The period after CAL resembles a berry. (#10729)
