It’s the only design struck at all seven historic U.S. Mints, including Carson City, where this particular coin was produced. Carson City issues are highly sought after due to their limited mintages and frontier legacy.

This coin features classic 19th-century artistry and nearly a quarter-ounce of gold, making it both a tangible store of value and a rare collectible from the Old West.
