2023 Congo 100 Francs CFA 1/2-gm Gold California Gold Rush 175th Anniversary Proof

The California Gold Rush Turns 175!

That’s right, the California Gold Rush, which started with a discovery at Sutter’s Mill on January 24, 1848, turns 175 years old this year. Sandwiched in between the Louisiana Purchase in 1803 and the Civil War in 1861, the California Gold Rush played a significant role in American history, spurring as it did hundreds of thousands to rush West in search of riches.

Symbolic Images Of The California Gold Rush

Released on behalf of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, this beautiful 100 Francs coin was struck in a half-gram of 99.9% pure gold and shows a pile of gold nuggets and a shovel & pickaxe—all symbolic of the rugged nature of the 49ers who scoured the hills of California’s Sierra Nevada Mountain Range—along with the dates of the Gold Rush, 1848-1855.
