S.S.C.A. Relic Gold Medals
2008 S.S.C.A. "Humbert $50 Commemorative" Gem Proof NGC. #120 of 375. The source of the gold alloy was Kellogg & Humbert ingots 830 and 555 recovered from the S.S. Central America shipwreck. Struck on September 12, 2008, exactly 149 years after the maritime disaster. The design is based on Kagin-11 except for a four-line legend within a plain rectangle on the reverse. The sun-gold surfaces display myriad fine die polish lines.
