1860 Mormon Gold Pieces: Salt Lake City, Utah Values
Greysheet & Red Book® PRICE GUIDE
The Greysheet Catalog (GSID) of the Mormon Gold Pieces: Salt Lake City, Utah (1849–1860) series of Private & Pioneer Gold in the U.S. Coins contains 1 distinct entries with CPG® values between $20,000.00 and $220,000.00.
The first name given to the organized Mormon Territory was the "State of Deseret," the last word meaning "honeybee." The beehive, which is shown on the reverse of the five-dollar 1860 piece, was a favorite device of the followers of Joseph Smith and Brigham Young. The clasped hands appear on most Mormon coins and exemplify strength in unity. HOLINESS TO THE LORD was an inscription frequently used. Brigham Young was the instigator of the coinage system and personally supervised the mint, which was housed in a little adobe building in Salt Lake City. The mint was inaugurated late in 1848 as a public convenience.Our Sponsors
