Description
Crisp 1879 Three Dollar, MS 65 PCGS
1879 $3 MS 65 PCGS. This coin's smooth, essentially distraction-free surfaces place it high on the list of extant 1879 three dollar gold pieces in terms of technical quality. The eye appeal is also extraordinary, with swirling cartwheel luster and original golden-rose color being the most memorable features. There is also modest reflectivity in the fields, but the devices are thickly frosted. Population: 25 in 65, with a mere four finer (12/00).From the Helyn Van Huffel Collection.
