THE TREASURE THAT SURVIVED
When the wreck of the SS Central America was finally discovered, historians uncovered thousands of extraordinary artifacts. The Eureka Gold Bar stood above them all.
RECORD-BREAKING FIND
Tipping the scales at 64 pounds, it stands as the largest monetary gold ingot ever pulled from the California Gold Rush.
NOTHING ELSE LIKE IT
Not even the Smithsonian holds a piece of comparable size — this bar has no true museum counterpart anywhere.
A FORTUNE IN CONTEXT
In 1858, the Home Ranch — spanning much of present-day Orange County — sold for just $41,000, barely 2.5 times the Eureka Bar’s original value.
—IT'S NEXT CHAPTER—
RESURFACING AT THE AQUARIUM OF THE BAY
After more than a century beneath the Atlantic, the Eureka Bar is resurfacing — this time on San Francisco's waterfront. Soon, those visiting Aquarium of the Bay can stand face to face with the world's largest California Gold Rush bar.
