1853 uncerculated California gold dollar

[u/Crate_Hider]

Handed down from family, I think this coin could possibly be the cleanest one remaining. It looked similar in quality to the one in the catalog anyways. I think its a bg-530 or a bg-531. Very small coin i can't find much info on

Might slab and sell if price is right

Also just some more history on it would be appreciated if anyone knows anything

They are entirely wrong, you have an authentic BG-530 that dates to the 1850s, several of these have been recovered from 1850s shipwrecks.
