| Additional information |
Clark, Gruber and Co. was a private Denver mint operating between 1860 and 1863, striking gold coins from Pikes Peak placer deposits at a time when the nearest federal mint was in New Orleans. The firm was bought out by the U.S. government in 1863, after which the building became an assay office rather than a coinage facility — federal coins were never actually struck there.
This is a pewter replica. The originals were struck in gold.
