On January 24, 1948, the USPS issued a stamp commemorating the 100th Anniversary of the Discovery of Gold in California. Shown here is a genuine First Day Cover, an envelope with the stamp, depicting Sutter's Mill in Coloma, cancelled from the city of issue (Coloma, CA) on the first day of issue captioned above.
The black & white cachet (artwork on the envelope produced by a private company, not the post office) shows a miner panning for gold. Historic, collectible, pristeen condition, this is a unique piece of postal and California memorabilia to display on your wall.
Double matted in blue & white, it's sized to fit a standard 8x10 frame. ***Certificate of Authenticity Included***
