The days are getting busy! I guess that's how things roll approaching the holidays!
I get my gold and silver mostly from online dealers: Bold Precious Metals, Monument Precious Metals, Liberty Coin, JM Bullion, Apmex, Bullion Exchange. Once in a while, I purchase from Ebay... items that are hard to find.
@stokjockey has an Ebay store, and some of my vintage silver were bought from him. But since he is in Hive, one advantage of buying from him is that he also takes HBD as payment. My recent two purchases from him were paid for using HBD.
I received my order for precious metals the other day from @stokjockey , but it sat in the mail tower for a day or two before I could get it.
The most recent accumulation cost me 149 HBD for six 1oz silver. @stockjockey's pricing is very reasonable. But gosh, he included very nice bonuses!!!
As you can read below, he again added a few extras:
A 90% Dime and a Quarter, two-10 gram silver Pamp pieces, 7 copper rounds, a California fractional gold piece (fantasy), an AirMail Stamp original unused from a favorite state 1959.
I will show them all in time!
In the meantime. I am so excited to show you this "fantasy" California Fractional Gold1.
1859 Type 2, Quarter Dollar California Fractional Gold, MS65
Here is what I found about California Fractional Gold in cursory research:
None of the original California gold coins have bears as a design device. Though most are brass or gold plated and some are minted in 9 Karat gold, their numismatic value is nil.
All of the small California gold coins that are contemporary with their dates were minted between 1852-56 and were privately made by jewelers. The purpose of these coins was to alleviate the acute coin shortage, especially of small change that existed in the “Gold Rush” era in California.
The coins were slightly underweight in relation to their face value. This fact was ignored since the need was so great and the alternative was to use unreliable gold dust.
Nearly all the 1852-56 coins are signed by the makers by an initial punched into the die. They come in 1/4, 1/2 and 1 dollar denomination which are part of the reverse design, usually placed within a circular beaded border. The coins come in octagonal and round shapes.
We know from publications of that time that these small coins were used as money. Later pieces dated from 1859-82 were made by jewelers for the trade and not for use as money, though some of these pieces might have circulated as well. The “souvenir” tokens of 1870 to about 1915 were probably used as money as well as jewelry items. The jeweler’s tokens are valued far less than the issues of 1852-56.
All types of California gold are collected, including the token issues, without denominations, made in the early 20th Century. Don’t confuse these pieces with the modern (c. 1960 or so) brass or 9 Karat gold imitations that plague the unknowing in the numismatic market place.2
This is definitely a fun piece to have!
I want to thank you @stokjockey find this great find! As always, I will treasure this piece.
Do you know that I have the Gold Walking Liberty and the Gold Buffalo in miniatures too? Maybe I'll show that side by side, along with this one. I can't believe I have three already!!!

There is a reason why a sword is held...........
Why?
I am Glad You asked Young Lady..........
The sword represented authority in ancient times, and conveys the idea that justice can be swift and final.
