- 1872 Three-Dollar Gold Piece. MS-62 (PCGS). CAC.
Lovely deep gold patina blankets both sides of this smartly impressed, modestly semi-prooflike example. With gold coins still not exchangeable at par with paper currency in the East and Midwest, the denomination highly unpopular as a circulating medium of exchange in any event, it is little wonder that the Philadelphia Mint produced any circulation strike three-dollar gold pieces in 1872. Nevertheless, a limited mintage of 2,000 coins was achieved, circulated survivors expectably scarce in today's market. Mint State coins are rarities, this being one of the finest that we have brought to auction in recent years.
PCGS Population: 19; 15 finer (MS-65+ finest).
PCGS# 7994. NGC ID: 25MV.
