<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnmilton, post: 3708275, member: 101855&quot;]Here is an 1848 CAL. I bought a few years ago. This piece is graded PCGS AU-55. When I was shopping for this coin, there was an AU-58 in the auction at the same show. It went for quite a bit more than what I paid for this piece, but it had been cleaned.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]993984[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]993985[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Back in the 1980s, a dealer offered me this &quot;economy model CAL.&quot; for $1,300. I got the chance to photo it. I think that it might be the worst one known, but it is made from the first shipment of California gold that made it to the East Coarst.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]993986[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]993987[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
