1873 Closed 3 Gold Dollar, MS66
Single Finest at CAC

1873 G$1 Closed 3 MS66 NGC. CAC. A tiny mintage of 1,800 pieces confirms the rarity of the Closed 3 1873 gold dollar. Unlike certain low-mintage, later dates the 1873 was not set aside in considerable quantity. The PCGS population is fewer than 100 pieces in all grades. Gems are even rarer than expected. In fact, CAC has confirmed only a single example as MS66 or finer, and that coin is the present lot (6/22). The strike is bold, and the smooth apricot-gold surfaces teem with luster. Housed in a green label holder, where it has resided since the 20th century. Census: 4 in 66, 0 finer. CAC: 1 in 66, 0 finer (6/22).
