Description
1884 Three Dollar, PR61 Cameo
Low Total Mintage Date
1884 $3 PR61 Cameo PCGS. JD-1, High R.4. For the first time,
proof three dollar gold pieces exceeded 100 pieces struck when the
1884 issue numbered 109 proofs produced. Perhaps 55 to 70 of those
pieces survive today. According to John Dannreuther, despite the
slightly larger mintage, 1884 proof three dollar coins appear less
often at auction than its immediate predecessors including the 1882
and 1883 three dollar pieces (proofs and circulation strikes
combined). This light, yellow-gold 1884 proof example displays
flashy mirrors and enough contrast to earn the PCGS Cameo
designation. Some light field chatter limits the numeric grade, but
the overall appearance subjectively exceeds the assigned
grade.(Registry values: N2998)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 28AT, PCGS# 88048, Greysheet# 8761)
