Sharply Struck, Lustrous Near-Gem 1854 Three Dollar

1854 $3 MS64 PCGS. The 1854 has the highest mintage of any issue in the three dollar series (138,618 pieces). Many were likely saved as curiosities when they were first released, accounting for the large numbers in AU and Mint State condition. Peach-gold, apricot, and mint-green patina resides on the lustrous surfaces of this near-Gem specimen. The strike is nearly full save for the usual softness in the hair over the temple. A squiggly field mark beneath the chin is mentioned for complete accuracy.(Registry values: N4719)
