- 1881 Three-Dollar Gold Piece. AU-55 (PCGS). Both sides of this lovely Choice AU three-dollar gold issue piece are boldly defined overall with plenty of semi-prooflike reflectivity evident in the fields. Vivid medium gold patina adds to the already strong eye appeal. The 1881 is one of the most eagerly sought three-dollar gold coins across the entire grading spectrum, the circulation strike mintage only 500 pieces. Most survivors are lightly circulated, as here, and were retrieved from bank reserves in the early 20th century through a campaign conducted for such purposes by numismatist Thomas L. Elder. Even so, there are nowhere near enough coins extant to meet the demand from today's advanced gold collectors, underscoring the significance of the present offering. PCGS# 8003. NGC ID: 25N4.
