Charming MS64 1879 Three Dollar

1879 $3 MS64 PCGS. After the last five-figure mintage for three dollar gold pieces in 1878, production fell to 3,000 business strikes in 1879. This strongly struck near-Gem from that year is wonderfully lustrous with a combination of swirls and reflectivity. Bright yellow-gold with a hint of frostiness over the devices. PCGS has graded 39 finer pieces (6/09).
