Greysheet Catalog Details (GSID: 11775)
Frederick Kohler opened the State Assay Office at San Francisco on May 13th, 1850. Six ingots have been reported from the San Francisco State Assay office; however, only four of these have been seen in recent memory (Kagin-1, Kagin-3, Kagin-4, and Kagin-5). Presumably, the other two examples no longer exist. Each ingot is unique, bearing the State Assay Office’s stamp, the year of manufacture (all are 1850), fineness expressed in carats, weight expressed in pennyweights, and value. Of particular interest is the $50 Kagin-5, which is the earliest $50 piece in the U.S. series.

About CDN Prices

All CDN prices are based on proprietary market knowledge and technology developed by CDN Publishing, LLC.

CPG® prices represent retail levels. Collectors should refer to CPG values as a starting place for their negotiations, or auction bid reference.

Greysheet/Greensheet prices are wholesale market levels for collectible coins/paper money intended to indicate what a dealer, or wholesale, buyer would pay for the described item in the specified grade. Greysheet/Greensheet represent "sight-seen" values based on a buyer's in-hand review. The actual value can be more or less than this depending on factors including eye appeal and market timing.

Bluesheet (NGC & PCGS) prices represent the highest sight-unseen offers to buy on dealer networks like CDN Exchange. In many cases, there are no active sight-unseen buy offers, so CDN looks to the recent lowest market values for such an item. For this reason, Bluesheet values typically represent the floor of the market for the specified item. CDN only tracks Bluesheet on certain items.

CAC prices are for U.S. coins that meet the standards of the Certified Acceptance Corporation. You can learn more about CAC on their web site.

Price movement is indicated for price changes in the last 30 days.

The prices listed in our database are intended to be used as an indication only. Users are strongly encouraged to seek multiple sources of pricing before making a final determination of value. CDN Publishing is not responsible for typographical or database-related errors. Your use of this site indicates full acceptance of these terms.
