Semiprooflike 1868 Three Dollar, MS64

1868 $3 MS64 PCGS. Within the context of the three dollar series the 1868 does not have an especially impressive mintage. But consider that only 4,850 circulation strikes were produced, and what a huge rarity such an issue would be in another series that is more widely collected by date and mintmark. As one would expect for such a low-mintage coin, the fields on this piece are bright and reflective with just a bit of cartwheel. The devices, of course, are nicely frosted and give the piece a moderate two-toned contrast. The surfaces shine with bright yellow-gold color and there are no mentionable abrasions, just a number of small, inoffensive marks on each side that explain the grade. Population: 12 in 64, 7 finer (3/10).(Registry values: N4719)
