- FROM THE SYMPHONY COLLECTION. K-24. Struck from Carolina Gold by August Bechtler, circa 1842-1850. One of the more available varieties, listed as R-3 in the Kagin reference. This pleasing coin is the antithesis of what you normally see. The surfaces are unconserved and have a rich olive-gold toning. The surfaces are nice and smooth and show not distracting marks and just some minor, light wear from a brief stay in honest circulation. Struck from locally mined gold, which was also a source of metal for the Charlotte and Dahlonega mint. Coins that had a blend of silver in the alloy tend to, when not cleaned or conserved take on this delicate olive patina. This coin has great eye appeal. PCGS 83, NGC 2, CAC 11. The most recent example sold for $3,250 in June 2018 and before that, one sold for $4,935 in June 2015. The current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $3,000 and as a popular Territorial type coin, this original AU example will entice strong bidding from anyone looking to start collecting coins of this popular specialty. Cert. Number 26196346 PCGS # 10040
