Baldwin & Co. issued 2 types of $10 gold coins dated 1850 and both are known to have many replicas, copy's and counterfeits. I suggest taking it to a qualified professional or sending it to a third-party grading service for authentication.

This coin needs to be seen for an accurate assessment. The 1850 Baldwin & Co. $5.00 gold piece is a private issue not a US Mint issue and is rare. Many replicas and fakes exist. Genuine examples are valued at more than $10,000.00 so authentication is a must. Please take it to a qualified professional.
