Lot Description

With a mintage of 1,100, the 1873 Closed 3 is quite scarce in the RED designation, extremely so finer than the GEM offered here. Brilliant orange-red color is visually enhanced by a watery-reflective flashy mirrored finish. Sharply struck, this GEM has a nice look. PCGS 31, NGC 7. The most recent example to sell in auction brought $2,160 in August 2020 and the current Collectors Universe value is $2,750. Just three have graded higher in the designation, all PR66 RD and the value jumps to $9,500. Seems like a PR65 RD presents a good opportunity for the collector. Cert. Number 39818513 PCGS # 2308.00
