Description
1888 Three Dollar Gold, PR64
Collectible Proof Date
1888 $3 JD-1, Low R.4, PR64 PCGS. The 291-piece mintage
makes the 1888 three dollar gold an obtainable proof for many
collectors. John Dannreuther estimates 110 to 130 proofs survive,
all struck from a single die pair. Some researchers suggest
additional proofs were struck from the circulation strike dies, but
we see no evidence of that in our archives. The JD-1 proofs all
have the date further left than the commercial strikes. This is a
well-contrasted near-Gem proof with rich orange coloration and a
few reddish accents across the pinpoint-sharp surfaces.
Glassy-mirrored fields surround the frosted raised motifs for
outstanding eye appeal. Only a few isolated, light hairlines are
seen on either side. PCGS Population: 25 in 64, 36 finer
(1/26).From The Charles Collection.
Coin Index Numbers: (Variety PCGS# 106645, Base PCGS# 8052)
