Description

Proof-Only 1876 Three Dollar

1876 $3 -- Damaged -- NGC Details. Proof. A formidable proof-only rarity, the 1876 has a Guide Book mintage of just 45 pieces. Regarding the number of survivors, PCGS states "35 to 40 known," a number of which are impaired. Only the unique 1870-S, and the proof-only 1875 and 1873 Open 3, provide a greater obstacle to those assembling sets. The present specimen is moderately granular and displays unusual streaks of light cherry-red toning. The portrait is indistinctly defined and displays a slender horizontal depression near the jaw. An important opportunity to acquire the famous Centennial-year date at a reasonable cost.(Registry values: N7079)
