Description
1874 Three Dollar in Copper
Judd-1369, PR63 Brown
1874 $3 Three Dollars, Judd-1369, Pollock-1514, High R.7, PR63
Brown PCGS. Ex: Simpson. Each side displays the regular design
for an 1874 three dollar gold piece. Struck in copper with a reeded
edge. It seems likely that only two or three examples of this three
dollar copper pattern exist. A similar number are known in
aluminum. They would have been manufactured for numismatic reasons
rather than to test the dies, as has been suggested in the
past.This rarity appears to be the first offering of a Judd-1369 coin in 15 years and the first we have handled at least since our Permanent Auction Archives were established in 1993. The obverse is deep brown while the reverse is more coppery or olive-gold with toning at the upper right border. Contact is minimal.
