Popular Type Coin

1878 $3 MS64 PCGS. The 1878 three dollar gold piece boasts a high mintage for the series of 82,324 pieces, and it was well saved at the time of issue since the denomination served little commercial use by that era. Today, it is an ideal type coin, and collectors widely appreciate the availability of high-grade pieces with lovely mint luster. This spectacular Choice example displays warm honey-gold hues and frosty surfaces, with a well-detailed strike and no singular abrasions of note.(Registry values: N2998)
