I decided to pair these two old hallmarks together, as they are cousins. If you look at the 5 and 10 oz mold on these, you will notice they fall into the what we call the Doyle’s Mold type. It has always been believed that many of these bars originated around Southern California, as this is where Doyle’s Mint was located. We recently got some provenance that proves Regold indeed was in Southern California. In fact, it was founded by John Rego, who was also the founder of JJSR. Regold was later mentioned in advertisements as formerly being J & J Smelting and Refining, which is really an amazing find in terms of the history. See the below pic with the back story.
Riverside Coin & Gold was in Riverside, CA, but not a lot of info available on them. RCG is the stamp within the state of CA hallmark. These are highly collectible and have become harder and harder to find.
