Lot Description

1888 Three-Dollar Gold Piece. MS-60 (NGC). The 1888 has long provided Mint State $3 gold coins for collections. It is thought that about 350 to 450 examples of the date can be found in Mint State, attesting to the fact that many examples were set aside by contemporary dealers. This is a pleasing BU example with softly lustrous surfaces and even pinkish-honey color. Provenance: From the Whytecliffe Collection. PCGS# 8010. NGC ID: 25NB.
