Its a territorial gold coin...made by a private mint back before they had the mint in San francisco...so its worth some dough... has a small dent on the obverse side but estimates from others are in the 3-5K range...the government bought up most of them back in the day to take them out of circulation...dont know if he will sell it...Note the head band says Moffat and Co instead of Liberty...if your lucky you will find one gold coin in a lifetime...found my first gold coin in the same area about a year ago. Lots of fun finding stuff..
