Description
1854-D Three Dollar Gold, AU53
Dahlonega Mint Rarity
1854-D $3 AU53 NGC. Variety 1-A. The Dahlonega Mint struck
three dollar gold pieces only in 1854, the first year of the
denomination. Coinage was limited to just 1,120 pieces, these
distributed into Southern commerce. No immediate numismatic
interest existed for the issue, and the coins served only a
commercial utility purpose. As a result, survivors are scarce in
all grades today, and nearly all are circulated. This AU example
displays bright yellow-gold color with light wear and smooth
surfaces. Hints of satiny luster cling to the protected peripheral
fields. Portions of the border dentils are weakly struck, as is
characteristic of this issue. Census: 10 in 53, 54 finer
(6/23).(Registry values: N7079)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25M4, PCGS# 7970, Greysheet# 8661)
Weight: 5.02 grams
Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
