The denomination was created as a means of exhausting an overage in gold supply due to the 1849 California Gold Rush. They were never intended for general use in commerce as the amount easily equated to a month's wage during the time of issue - making them impractical to carry as a coin. NGC encapsulation offers protection and guarantees the beautiful MS-63 condition of the coin. Certified in an older NGC holder. Conservatively graded in our opinion, has a better look than MS64 Ive seen on the market.No motto and Struck at the Denver Mint. Obverse: Depicts Liberty striding forward holding a torch and an olive branch with the U. Capitol building in the backdrop.
