Description
1882 Three Dollar Gold Piece, MS61
Reflective Surfaces
1882 $3 MS61 NGC. A fairly large number of 1882 threes have
survived in Mint State. In fact, NGC and PCGS combined have
certified about 210 Uncirculated examples, several of which are
likely resubmissions. This MS61 coin exhibits bright surfaces with
attractive brass-gold patina and decent luster. The fields display
reflective prooflike surfaces, which is characteristic of the date,
and offer considerable contrast to the mildly frosted motifs. A
sharp strike characterizes the design elements, with just some
minor softness apparent in Liberty's hair. Magnification reveals
several wispy slide marks, as well as some short, inoffensive
pinscratches. The diagnostic crescent-shaped vestige of an earlier
2 above the final digit shows clearly.(Registry values: N2998)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25N5, PCGS# 8004, GSID# 8653)
