- Lot Description
- 1867 Three-Dollar Gold Piece. AU-58 (PCGS). Ample remnants of the original finish can be seen on this lovely near-Mint example. It is warmly patinated in golden-orange, and both sides display sharp to full striking detail to most design elements. One of numerous underappreciated rarities in the circulation strike three-dollar gold series of 1854 to 1889, the 1867 was produced to the extent of just 2,600 coins. Fewer than 200 are believed extant in all grades, and this semi-prooflike example is certainly among the finest circulated survivors available to today's gold collectors. PCGS# 7988. NGC ID: 25MN.
