Description

Brightly Reflective 1883 Three Dollar, MS64 ★

1883 $3 MS64 ★ NGC. At first glance this important business strike actually looks like a proof due to its brightly mirrored fields and satiny devices. The light yellow surfaces also have hints of the watery or wavy surface that is typical of proof gold coins. The borders on both sides have pale lemon-yellow color.
The 1883 three dollar gold piece is extremely popular due to its low mintage of just 900 business strikes. Another 89 proofs were also coined. The current NGC Census Report shows that just two 1883 three dollar pieces have been certified in MS64 , the only Star-designated examples of the date (3/10), with seven pieces numerically finer (all MS65).(Registry values: N4719)
