1855 Wass, Molitor & Co. "Plugged 5" in date. $10 gold. K-6, B-7927. AU-58 (PCGS). Rarity-5. Light yellow gold. Lustrous and attractive. Sharp central portrait as made, many other features in low relief, also as in the dies. An outstanding, indeed incredible specimen of this classic rarity in the California gold series-the only variety of Wass, Molitor & Co. coinage dated 1855. Breen enumerates the existence of eight specimens, a roster prepared before this remarkable S.S. Central America find. The discovery of multiple examples of this issue in the treasure now makes this a highly collectible variety, although still a rarity.
