Description
Low-Mintage 1871 Three Dollar, MS62
Richly Patinated and Semiprooflike
1871 $3 MS62 NGC. Ex: Caleb Louis Collection. The 1871 three
dollar has been a collector favorite since issued. Only 1,300
pieces were struck, and a surprising number were set aside by
astute collectors at the time of issuance. Still, it is a popular
and highly sought-after issue today. The fields on this piece are
semireflective, as often seen. Each side displays lilac-tinged
orange-gold mint luster that deepens considerably to reddish-gold
at the margins. Well, but not fully struck, with the usual softness
on the first two digits in the date. Census: 9 in 62, 12 finer
(7/10).From The Caleb Louis Collection of U.S. Gold Type.(Registry values: N2998)
