- 1860-S Three-Dollar Gold Piece. AU-55 (PCGS). Vivid deep orange and pale olive patina blends nicely over both sides of this attractive Choice AU. Boldly defined overall, the surfaces reveal glints of the original, modestly semi-prooflike finish as the coin rotates under a light. The 1860-S (just 7,000 pieces produced), is the rarest of the early San Francisco Mint three-dollar gold issues. In their 2005 book The United States $3 Gold Pieces: 1854-1889, Q. David Bowers and Douglas Winter account for fewer than 150 survivors in all grades. The vast majority of examples in numismatic hands grade no finer than VF. About Uncirculated coins, as here, are rare, while Mint State pieces are exceedingly so. An important offering for three-dollar gold specialists. PCGS Population: 11; 14 finer, just four of which are Mint State (MS-62 finest). PCGS# 7981. NGC ID: 25MF. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
