GOLD RUSH YEAR! I dollar Gold coin. Nicer in hand, hard to get a close up picture for me anyway.

From Coinfacts:

The first Gold Dollars debuted in 1849, the result of a large influx of gold from California. The first versions are of the Open Wreath variety, showing the tips of the wreath distant from the 1 of the denomination. Later in the year, the Closed Wreath variety became the design of choice and was used until the end of the Type I series in 1854. The 1849 Open Wreath design includes both the With L and the No L varieties (these refer to the designer's initial which appears, or does not, on the truncation of the bust). Apart from the single No L variety, researcher John Dannreuther has identified three different With L varieties.
