Description

1880 $3 MS65 NGC. Exactly 1,000 business strikes were produced in 1880, and this is a magical mintage figure. Very few regular issue United States coins have lower recorded mintages. Among regular issue three-dollar gold coins, for example, only four issues have lower mintages, including the 1873 Closed 3 issue with an unknown but small production. This is a magnificent Gem example with lovely apricot-gold color. The surfaces are slightly reflective with lustrous devices that are all quite sharply detailed. This captivating Gem is sure to please the connoisseur. Census: 15 in 65, 5 finer (3/09).
