Description
1864 Three Dollar, PR53
Just 50 Proofs Struck
1864 $3 PR53 NGC. The rarity of business strikes (just 2,630
pieces struck) contributes to demand for the few proofs that exist
-- even though only 50 proofs were made and far fewer than that
number survive. This pleasing, yellow-gold proof apparently had a
stint in commerce and likely was confused with a business strike at
one time. Proof strikes are confirmed by the date positioned
slightly left without the repunching shown on those coins struck
for circulation. The fields are cloudy with small marks and
mirrored only in protected areas as witness to the brief
circulation. Census: 2 in 53, 16 finer (6/16).(Registry values: N2998)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 28A4, PCGS# 8027, Greysheet# 8698)
Weight: 5.02 grams
Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
