1888 Three Dollar Gold, PR62
Struck From Proof-Only Dies
1888 $3 PR62 PCGS. The recorded mintage of the 1888 proof
three dollar gold was 291 pieces, largest of the series, although
some may have been melted or otherwise traded away -- see the Breen
Proof Encyclopedia for much more. There are two proof
varieties, although the present piece is struck from the proof-only
dies, showing a long rust patch on the neck and no doubling on
LIBERTY; the other dies with doubled LIBERTY were used as well for
business strikes. This PR62 piece shows a few faint field hairlines
and tiny contact marks that account for the grade. Deep orange-red
surfaces show the expected needle-sharp strike and excellent eye
appeal for the grade.(Registry values: N4719)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 28AX, PCGS# 8052)
Weight: 5.02 grams
Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
