BEAUTIFUL HISTORIC 1889 S SADDLE RIDGE HOARD GOLD LIBERTY COIN PCGS UNCIRC.In 2013 a couple walking their dog on their Northern California property in the spring discovered the biggest and most valuable gold coin hoard ever unearthed in the United States. They were treading the same well-worn path they’ve trod hundreds of times for the dog’s daily constitutional when they spotted the rusted top of a metal can sticking up out of the eroded ground. They dug the can out with a stick and took it home. The eight cans contained a total of 1427 United States gold coins, 1373 were coins, 50 were coins and four were coins.
Several years ago, I purchase several of these Saddle Ridge Hoard coins when they were first listed for sale on Amazon. Today, up for auction is a fantastic RARE Liberty coin from the fabled
SADDLE RIDGE HOARD
.
It is a beautiful coin authenticated by PCGS and is in its original holder.
Also included is the original custom wood SADDLE RIDGE BOX it came in as well as the historical booklet outlining the discovery as well as listing all the coins found. Rarely do these coins come up for auction on Ebay.
I am the original purchaser of this coin.
It is a wonderful very bright uncirculated example that would definitely grade MS65 or higher if it was not for the "cleaning" designation.
Most of the Hoard coins were cleaned to remove the toning deposits and come with the same designation from PCGS. This one may have been lightly cleaned before it was buried in one of the tin cans and may be as it was found. You will love this coin, it is sharply struck with only very light hairlines.
