Omschrijving

Private and Pioneer Gold Coins of the United States, the newest addition to Whitman's popular Red Book Series, delves into the fascinating world of these rare and historic coins from a time when private mints stepped in to provide much-needed local circulating currency during America's gold-rush era. Authored by industry experts Donald H. Kagin, Ph D. and David J. McCarthy, this comprehensive guide brings to life the story of these extraordinary coins, minted outside federal authority from 1786 to 1862, and explores the denominations that set them apart.

From early Brasher doubloons to tiny fractional pieces to hefty $50 slugs, private and pioneer gold coins reflect the diverse economic needs of their time, as well as the ingenuity of those who created them. Whether used in bustling California mining towns, on the Oregon Trail, or in frontier settlements, these coins are a window into the challenges and triumphs of early American commerce.

Complete with historical background, stunning photographs, detailed descriptions, market values, and expert insights, this book is a must-read for collectors, historians, and anyone captivated by the untamed spirit of America's gold rush.
