Amazing details on this beautiful coin; Extremely Rare especially in this next-to-finest Grade!!! Certification #: 3001002-002 Comment:  The easiest way to spot the difference in the two 573 varieties is to look at the last 'e' of Gold Piece on the reverse. The 573a issue has the 'e' to the right of Clackamas and the 573b 'e' is directly over the S of Clackamas. There are other small differences. Description 1959 Oregon Beaver Dollar, HK-573, MS67 NGC. Gilt bronze, 39.7 mm. Part of the Oregon Statehood Centennial grouping, this issue was struck by the North Clackamas County Chamber of Commerce as a fundraiser. 20,000 pieces were struck and sold at the cost of 50 cents per token. The design incorporates a simplistic copy of the popular Oregon Exchange Company ten dollar territorial gold piece, which featured a well known symbol of the region; the beaver. The field of the outer ring is textured, giving a nicely contrasting visual effect. The current piece is of extraordinary quality, as one would expect per the assigned grade. Beautiful straw-gold coloration is coupled with virtually flawless fields to arrive at near-perfection. Census: 12 in 67, 2 finer (8/07).   Previous Prices from Heritage Auctions Lot Date Grade Service Realized Auction 28052, Lot 23160 Tuesday, May 13, 2008 67 NGC $296.70 Auction 427, Lot 81476 Saturday, September 29, 2007 67 NGC $373.75 Auction 427, Lot 81477 Saturday, September 29, 2007 67 NGC $373.75 Auction 427, Lot 81228 Saturday, September 29, 2007 67 NGC $431.25 Auction 427, Lot 81166 Saturday, September 29, 2007 67 NGC $488.75   1959 Oregon Beaver Dollar, HK-573, MS66 NGC. Gilt bronze, 39.7 mm. The Oregon Statehood Centennial is the theme of this token, although it is often referred to as the “Oregon beaver dollar” for obvious reasons. 20,000 pieces were issued to defray expenses of centennial events in North Clackamas County, Oregon. The original $10 Gold Coin was issued by the Oregon Territory Legislature to create order from the gold dust being brought back from the California gold fields. This gold coin features a beaver on the obverse. The coin is very rare and valuable and ranges in price from about 20,000 - $60,000+ depending on grade.
