COLOSSAL CALIFORNIA GOLD RUSH COMMEMORATIVE COIN PROOF LUCKY MONEY VALUE 9.95
On January 24, 1848, James Marshall discovered gold at Sutter’s Mill on the American River in Coloma,
California. News of the discovery set off one of the largest human migrations in history as a half-million people from around the world descended
upon California in search of instant wealth. In the first 5 years of the California Gold Rush, more than 12 million ounces of gold were found,
but the greatest impact of the gold rush was the growth of the area, leading to the admission of California as the 31st state of the Union.
