- 1887 Three-Dollar Gold Piece. MS-64 (NGC). The 1887 is much scarcer than many other late-date Threes with limited business strike deliveries, and it seems that most of the 6,000 examples struck were later melted in the Mint. Mint State survivors are thought to number fewer than 200 coins (per Q. David Bowers and Doug Winter, <em>The United States $3 Gold Pieces: 1854-1889</em>, 2005), and MS-64 represents the finest in technical quality that is usually obtainable in today's market. A handsome reddish-orange coin with satiny luster, bold striking detail and overall smooth-looking surfaces.
