A gentleman who was fondling and heft-
Ing II said: IF that old piece of gold
could only speak, what tales Of romance
and adventure it could give us-of hard
ship and privation among the foothills. OF
travel and traffic along the Sacramento,
of betting and bunkoing In the mining
camp. and of reveiry and roy stering amid
the gilded saloons and questionable haunts
OF early San Francisco. Who knows but
that ii has figured in 4 stage ROBBERY or
a murder? On the other hand, who can
tell but that it left the Western mining
camp to carry its message Of love and
plenty back TO some destitute Eastern
home?"
Passing fancies these, yet not impossi-
bilities. But there is nothing fanc.ful.
nothing ethereal about the old coin it,
self. II Is solid and substantial as the
most matter-of-fact man could wish, even
though he were Mr.. Gradgr.nd himself.
The accompanying cut shows the OBJ
verse face better than any verbal de-
scripsion could portray 1t. The cut is
OF the exact size OF the coin. But the
reader. In looking at the cut, must bear
Il s,,ir.i that the coin is a full eighth OF
an inch thick. 1t is octagonal in form.
It's longest diameter being one and FIVE
eighths, inches. Around the sight SIDES
are neatly engraved the following words:
"AUgustus --Lumbefs-CntadS s. ates;-Af-
sayer-os Gcld-Calfornia-ls5l." The re-
verse face shows no special design fur
Their than faint radating lines suggesting
Il sun disc.
One thing that adds much to the beauty
and value of this specimen is its almost
perfect preservation. The last figure l
in the date 1851 ard the first letter in
Lumb&rt's name are the only parts of the
engraving that show the Cravings OF the
tooth Of time, and even these are plainly
decipherable. The CON weighs nearly
three ounces.
The happy owner OF this miniature treas

chandise department Of the Oregon I'M
