dms0770 New Member United States 1 Posts	Posted 06/22/2016 11:56 pm Hi All! New here!! I recently inherited a safety deposit box worth of old US coins. I know most of what's in there. However, there is this one coin in there that I have NO IDEA what it is. I've tried doing research on it but cannot find anything. It is a very small (less than 1/2 in), gold Indian Head with the words I/4 DOLLAR on the back. No date, no mint mark. See attached images. Any information on this coin is MUCH appreciated!! Thanks so much!! Edited by dms0770 06/23/2016 12:12 am Report this Post to the Staff

Zurie Pillar of the Community United States 5668 Posts	Posted 06/23/2016 01:11 am Looks like an undated California fractional gold, BG-222, possibly mint state or high AU if genuine. Nice piece! http://www.PCGScoinfacts.com/Coin/Detail/10407 Report this Post to the Staff

The best thing to do is get this coin to PCGS and in a righteous slab. It's like tucking a $400 bill away in the savings account at that point. Report this Post to the Staff
