This is my first Dahlonega purchase and I couldn’t be happier. My photography skills are lacking, so it is difficult to capture its luster and vivid colors under a light. This was also my first purchase from a David Lawrence auction and I am very impressed with their friendly and attentive staff. Care to guess the grade? Grade revealed with additional photos in thread below: NGC XF45 CAC.

Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......
Beautiful! I'll guess 45. DLRC is great to work with.

Very nice pick up! Finding a sharp 1850-D $5 is a monumental task! Great choice!
I'd say XF-45 and a lovely one at that.
I am in the 45 crowd.
Very nice, xf-45 !!!
My guess would be AU50.

Very nice Dahlonega gold... I am in the 45-50 group, though truthfully, I just like gold coins and the grade really does not matter. Cheers, RickO
Looks solid 50 to me.

That’s how I would like mine to look. Congratulations.
Thanks for all of the compliments and feedback and to all who took a stab at guessing the grade. The coin is NGC XF45 CAC. I really like how the old NGC fatty holders feel like a circa 2006 i-pod photo. Here's a full slab shot along with the DLRC photos now that I've had a chance to upload on my computer:
A very nice 45.

I like it even more now as a 45. Super looking. Congrats!
