49er California Pinch of Gold Recovered from the S.S. Central America

The SS Central America, also known as the Ship of Gold, was a 280-foot (85 m) sidewheel steamer that carried gold from the legendary California gold rush that began when gold was first found at Sutter's Mill 1848.

The ship, which was sailing for New York City, was caught up in a Category 2 hurricane in 1857 while off the coast of the Carolinas. It sank, drowning more than $1.6 million dollars in California Gold Rush gold.

In 1988, the Columbus-America Discovery Group of Ohio successfully conducted a treasure-hunting expedition that located the SS Central America 140 years after the disaster and recovered the sunk gold.

Today, at SD Bullion, you can acquire an authentic 'pinch' of California Gold Dust recovered from the SS Central America shipwreck.

Product Highlights

  • Contains a pinch of gold;

  • Recovered from the sunken SS Central America;

  • Authentic gold dust from California’s 1850’s Gold Rush;

  • Housed in a plastic case.

Gold Dust

In the early days of gold mining, especially in the surrounding areas of the mines, paper money was not as used as physical gold to pay trivial accounts. Gold nuggets and gold dust were the most common and trustworthy means of making trades.
