Shimmering Original Luster

1878 $3 MS64 PCGS. The large 82,304-piece mintage was intended to serve as gold coin exchange for paper bills at par, but public demand never materialized. Fortunately for collectors, the availability of the 1878 three dollar issue continues to this day, offering type collectors and series specialists many opportunities to find a high-grade example. This Choice Uncirculated coin is highly lustrous and well struck. An attractive combination of mint frost and satin-smooth surfaces creates outstanding eye appeal.(Registry values: N2998)
