Description: Gold Beach is a city in and the county seat of Curry County, Oregon, United States, on the Oregon Coast. The population was 2,253 at the 2010 census. The community was originally named Ellensburg in the 1850s, but later took the name Gold Beach after a beach near the mouth of the Rogue River where hundreds of placer mines extracted gold. Mailboats based in Gold Beach have been delivering mail upstream to Agness since 1895, one of only two rural mailboat routes remaining in the U.S. The population was 2,260 as of July 2011. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gold_Beach,_Oregon en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Text_of_Creative_Commons_...
