- 1865 Three-Dollar Gold Piece. AU-50 (PCGS). Endearing straw-gold surfaces retain overall bold design elements and appreciable semi-reflective tendencies in the fields. By 1865, the final year of the Civil War, gold coins had already been absent from circulation in the East and Midwest for three years. Little bullion reached the Mint for new coinage during that time and the three-dollar gold piece, unpopular almost from the time of its introduction in 1854, was particularly hard hit. Circulation strike coinage amounted to a mere 1,140 pieces in 1865, this being the rarest issue of the type produced up to that point in time. The present example is among the finer certified of just 100 to 150 circulated coins believed extant, and it is sure to have no difficulty finding its way into an advanced gold cabinet. PCGS# 7986.
