2009 Humbert Commemorative 2.5 oz Gold Gem Proof Ultra Cameo

This 2009 Humbert Commemorative coin is a stunning tribute to California’s rich gold-mining history, crafted in 2.5 ounces of pure .9999 fine gold. Struck to perfection in Gem Proof Ultra Cameo quality, this piece showcases intricate detail and exceptional craftsmanship. Certified by NGC, it reflects the legacy of early California gold coins first minted by Augustus Humbert during the Gold Rush era.

These coins were struck in very limited quantities using actual gold ingots recovered from the SS Central America Shipwreck of 1857.  Their size, beauty, gold content and pedigree combine to make these one of the most interesting shipwreck artifacts that money can buy today.

With its mirror-like fields and frosted relief, this coin displays striking contrast, enhancing its visual appeal for collectors and investors alike. Composed of pure California gold, it captures the essence of the state’s storied past while standing as a modern piece of high-value bullion. This coin’s scarcity and superior condition make it a distinguished addition to any gold collection.

Available now at Austin Rare Coins & Bullion, this gem offers a tangible connection to America’s golden past, appealing to both history enthusiasts and precious metal investors.
