The 1852 Territorial Gold Moffat & Co. $10 gold piece represents a crucial moment in the monetization of California Gold Rush bullion. Issued by the respected San Francisco firm of Moffat & Co., these eagles helped stabilize commerce at a time when federal gold coinage was insufficient to meet demand. The Wide Date variety is a recognized and collected subtype within the series, adding further interest for specialists in territorial and pioneer gold.
This example is graded PCGS XF-45, a level that preserves strong remaining detail while still reflecting honest circulation during a formative period of Western American commerce. PCGS has certified just five examples at the XF-45 level, with only five graded finer, underscoring the scarcity of problem-free survivors in this condition range.
Adding to its historical appeal, this coin is pedigreed to the SS Central America, the famous 1857 shipwreck that yielded a remarkable trove of Gold Rush–era gold. The Central America provenance connects this piece directly to one of the most significant numismatic and historical discoveries of the modern era.
