Description
1882 Three Dollar Gold, MS65
Very Rare in Finer Grades
1882 $3 MS65 PCGS. CAC. The 1882 three dollar gold piece
claims a business-strike mintage of 1,500 pieces, certainly a small
total in absolute terms, but not out-of-the-ordinary in the context
of the series. Fortunately, the 1882 has a relatively high survival
rate, probably because contemporary collectors realized the low
production total would make the coins more desirable in the future
and went to the trouble of saving high-quality pieces in Mint State
condition. The issue is still very rare at the MS65 level, however.
This delightful Gem exhibits well-detailed design elements and
vibrant mint luster throughout, with well-preserved yellow-gold
surfaces that show a few areas of prooflike reflectivity.
Population: 7 in 65, 5 finer. CAC: 1 in 65, 2 finer
