Description
1849 Moffat Five, VF30
Scarce K-4a Variety
1849 $5 Moffat & Co. Five Dollar VF30 PCGS. K-4a, R.4. The
die break from E in FIVE to DO in DOL identifies the late die state

interior design detail and the pleasing orange-gold surfaces are
lightly abraded for the grade. These early five dollar gold pieces
were designed to mimic Federal half eagles by Moffat & Co. chief
engraver Albert Kuner. The coins were redeemable at par and
circulated in California until the late 1850s. Listed on page 410
of the 2025 Guide Book. PCGS Population (all varieties
combined): 16 in 30, 108 finer (5/25).Ex: FUN Signature (Heritage, 1/2014), lot 7437.
