Description

1879 $3 AU55 PCGS. The limited mintage of just 3,000 coins suggests that the 1879 three dollar gold piece is an important rarity. However, few actually entered circulation, so the survival rate is quite high. This piece has a trace of friction on the high points of the design with reflective, mirrored fields. Both sides have medium yellow color with a trace of orange toning.(Registry values: N1793)
