The Greysheet Catalog (GSID) of the Miners Bank: San Francisco (1849) series of Private & Pioneer Gold in the U.S. Coins contains 1 distinct entries with CPG® values between $22,000.00 and $175,000.00.

The institution of Wright & Co.,

exchange brokers located in Portsmouth

Square, San Francisco, was known as

the Miners' Bank.

A ten-dollar piece was issued in the

autumn of 1849, but the coins were

not readily accepted because they were

worth less than face value. The firm was

dissolved on January 14, 1850. Unlike

the gold in most California issues, the gold in these coins was alloyed with copper.
