"Black ink on white paper. 51/8 x 10 3/4'. A very desirable assay receipt that ties Emil jnsth, half of jnsth & Hunter, to Sidney Van Wyck, formerly of the San Francisco Mint and later an important assayer in Virginia / Gold Hill, N.T. This fonn was for a Wells Fargo deposit of 1125.58 ounces that assayed at .888 fine. When Justh was at this location, at 104 Montgomery, he was directly across the street from Wells Fargo's office. This would be a superb -and very scarce - association item with one of the S.S. Central America's rare
Justh & Hunter ingots, or one of the later unparted bars made by Van Wyck at Gold Hill.”
