| Reverse description | Central device depicts two clasped hands in low relief, symbolizing the fraternal covenant central to Latter-day Saint theology, positioned in the upper central field. The date 1849 appears in the lower central field in large numerals. The circular legend PURE GOLD TEN DOLLARS is distributed around the periphery in widely spaced Latin capitals separated by dot stops, arranged between two concentric raised rims. The denomination and metallic guarantee together serve as the primary monetary statement of this pioneer emission. The engraving is characteristically bold and simple, consistent with frontier mint production. |
