Description
1862 Three Dollar, Sharp AU58
Rare CAC-Approved Example
1862 $3 AU58 PCGS. CAC. This is a remarkably sharp example,
showing bold definition on the headdress and the wreath bowknot
despite a touch of high-point friction that prevents Mint State
classification. Original honey-gold patina retains luster in the
fields, while scattered abrasions accompany the aforementioned
wear. Only a dozen coins in this grade are CAC endorsed. However,
few CAC-approved coins ever appear on the market. Our Auction
Archives show only a dozen prior appearances of CAC coins
regardless of grade. This near-Mint CAC coin is especially
important. Population: 39 in 58 (2 in 58+), 49 finer. CAC: 13 in
58, 13 finer (10/25).(Registry values: N1793)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25MH, PCGS# 7983, Greysheet# 8635)
Weight: 5.02 grams
Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
