Just wanted to confirm this miniature copy of the very rare Pan-Pacific San Francisco Expo gold octagonal coin was indeed made at the Columbia mint. Only markings on the coin are a 24K stamped on one of the sides. This is a tiny coin. Wanted to know the value...I think it weighs something like .5 grams. Thanks, Javagator001 Edited by Javagator001 11/17/2019 7:02 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Your piece is a medal not a coin. Your medal appears to match the images of the Columbia Mint medal, but I can't be 100% sure. The piece was marketed back in 1980. Early in the year it was struck on a 22K planchet (i.e., 0.900 fine gold), but from September on it was advertised as being of 24K gold (i.e., pure gold). Regardless, the medal was always sold for $50 plus $2.00 postage. At 0.5 grams, the piece has about $23.50 worth of gold (as of 11/18/2019). Its value is tied to its intrinsic value as it does not have much demand among collectors. Collecting history one coin or medal at a time! (c) commems. All rights reserved.
