Description
Intriguing PR60 Cameo 1867 Three Dollar
1867 $3 PR60 Cameo NGC. Garrett and Guth caution on this issue's mintage in their Encyclopedia of U.S. Gold Coins: "The mintage of 50 Proofs of this date may be the official tally, but the actual number of Proofs sold to collectors was probably closer to 25 to 35 coins, which seemed to be a fairly consistent level of demand from 1859 on." The authors further note that "cameo Proofs are the rule," as seen here. Though numerous hairlines and contact marks affect the deep yellow-gold fields, the mirrors retain their power of contrast, and the well struck, lightly frosted devices supply the rest. Census: 1 in 60 Cameo, 7 finer (6/10).(Registry values: N4719)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 28A7, PCGS# 88030, GSID# 8707)
