Lot Description

1879 Three-Dollar Gold Piece. AU-58 (PCGS). Rich golden-amber tones saturate the complexion of this gorgeous, low-mintage example. The fields are considerably reflective and contrast handsomely with the more frosty and satiny design elements on each side. The surfaces are delightfully preserved for the assigned grade, exhibiting just the lightest friction and remaining free from distracting abrasions. Strong eye appeal and prooflike qualities contribute to the considerable desirability of this Choice AU survivor. PCGS# 8001. NGC ID: 25N2. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
