The Regency Auction 52

详细说明: FROM THE OAK COLLECTION As the Civil War continued into its third bloody year, mintages dropped dramatically as wide spread coin hoarding continued. Only 5,000 three dollar gold pieces were struck for circulation. PCGS CoinFacts estimates 650 survive in all grades. This is a very pleasing slider example, a perfect AU58 for the Everyman set. A very pleasing green-gold coloration adorns the lightly circulated surfaces. Struck from clashed dies, Liberty's curls show some of the typical weakness seen on this date. Frosty, somewhat subdued luster is seen on both sides, which show some minor marks from its brief time in circulation, none of which are singularly distracting to the visual allure. PCGS 30, NGC 77, CAC 7. There are clearly many duplicate submissions of this date in hopes of getting a Mint State grade, and the quality is usually poor for the grade, as only 7 have received CAC approval. The ONLY CAC-approved AU58 was an NGC-graded coin that sold in April 2021 for $8,750. The current CAC CPG value is $11,600. With a dearth of CAC-approved Mint State pieces, this high end AU58 will have to suffice for most collectors. We expect strong bidding for this desirable Civil War date. Cert.
