Lot 1136
1855 Kellogg & Co. $20 Gold. PCGS graded AU-53. Abundant eye-appeal greets the viewer when this coin is examined. The surfaces are a rich, yellow gold with coppery highlights, obviously from an old collection. Bright mint luster abounds, and the strike is strong on both sides. A few trivial handling marks to be expected on these large heavy coins, but they are not distracting or disfiguring. As to the rims, they are clean and without the usual profusion of bumps. PCGS reports only 2 graded as AU-53, with 10 graded higher.
Estimated Value $3,500 - 4,500.
This one is apparently from an old B. Max Mehl sale, date unknown, lot 1916.
