Lot Description

Warm honey-gold color greets the viewer from both sides of this handsome BU example. Tinges of powder blue and pale pink flash into view as the surfaces dip into a light and add further eye appeal. This is the prime type issue in the challenging three-dollar gold series, and at the MS-62 grade level the offered coin will be just right for many collections.
