The BG-529, an octagonal $1 California fractional gold coin from 1854, is a remarkable rarity, distinguished as the finest known example, graded MS61 by NGC and the sole Mint State coin of its variety, with only four known specimens (two graded by PCGS at AU50 and AU58+, and two by NGC at AU58 and MS61). Struck with a single-use die, this coin features a Coronet-Liberty head obverse, surrounded by eight stars, mirroring federal gold coin designs, and a reverse with "CALIFORNIA GOLD" at the top, "DERI" (abbreviating M. Deriberpie) at the bottom, and "1 DOLLAR 1854" within a beaded circle, uniquely marked by two stars between "GOLD" and "DERI." Discovered in September 1980 by Jay Roe (AU50), its extreme scarcity and top-grade status make it a pinnacle for collectors, offered by AUCM and valued for its historical and numismatic significance in the expansive California fractional gold series.
