- Seldom Offered Mint State 1857 Three-Dollar Gold 1857 Three-Dollar Gold Piece. MS-62 (PCGS). OGH. The delightful surfaces of this 1857 three-dollar gold piece are intensely lustrous with a satin to softly frosted finish. Vivid color adds further appeal, the obverse drenched in reddish-gold that is also seen on the reverse periphery before yielding to softer wheat-gold toward the center on that side. Sharply struck for the type with nicely preserved surfaces that are close to Choice Mint State. Circulation strike production of three-dollar gold pieces continued to fall in 1857 as the denomination failed to gain traction in commerce. The Philadelphia Mint struck just 20,891 examples that year, and survivors are scarcer than the 1854, 1855 and 1856 issues. Most are circulated, attractive Mint State survivors such as offered here are elusive and always in demand among advanced gold enthusiasts. Provenance: From the Huberman Collection. Acquired from J.J. Teaparty, July 1996. PCGS# 7976. NGC ID: 25MA. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
