I have 3 of these, but not sure what this is. Was trying to look for the name on Price Guide (curious how much it's worth) but it has CC on it.

They were issued by a private mint for the State of California in 1990.
The value would come from the PM content and they were issued in 4-coin sets as you can find here...
1990 California Gold Bear Set

Worry is the interest you pay on a debt you may not owe.

Looked at the link looks like the set is $6k and gold is worth $1,729.38 per ounce. Think I could get $2.5k for it and invest in gold eagles?
Just melt is what it is worth.

I'm sorry, but unless you run across someone who is especially interested in this particular item, you will be lucky to get much over melt for these. At most you might get $1750 at the current spot.
There may be someone out there who collects these and would be willing to give you more, but really, they are nothing more than bullion.
Cheers !
Does anyone know if PCGS grades state coins?
Just a California thing.
