Did the territorial coins weigh as much as the mint coins? I’m very thrown off by the weight Of this one. It seems to look Very real. Possibly k-1a R.4 Die? Any info of this would be great.
From the extensive reading I’ve done, the territorial gold pieces produced by kellogg were the first of their kind and look of a double eagle. When the mint opened later than year in april, it couldn’t vill the void of coins because of lacking base metals and acids. but kellogg started producing his coins in the beginning of the year and kept production going even into the following year. If it’s a territorial pieces and the first of its kind how would it have known what standers it had to meet
