Description
1849 Norris, Gregg & Norris Half Eagle
XF Details
Reeded Edge, No Period after ALLOY, K-3
1849 $5 Norris, Gregg & Norris Five Dollar, Reeded Edge --
Repaired -- PCGS Genuine. XF Details. K-3, High R.6. The
partnership of Norris, Gregg & Norris was founded in New York City
and relocated to the San Francisco area in 1849 following the
discovery of gold at Sutter's Mill. The firm began issuing private
gold coinage shortly after arriving, and while they produced large
quantities of the half eagle, the exact mintage is not known. This
piece is the K-3 variety, with a reeded edge and no period after
ALLOY. A Guide Book issue, K-3 is the rarest of the four
1849 varieties. A small gouge at the A in FRANCISCO serves as a
pedigree marker, while the fields throughout each side exhibit
careful tooling to repair other abrasions. Surface marks are
otherwise inoffensive. Listed on page 410 of the 2025 Guide
Book.
