Description

Attractive 1883 Gem Three Dollar

1883 $3 MS65 PCGS. The 1883 three dollar piece saw a minuscule circulation-strike mintage of only 900 pieces. A fair number of these have survived, especially in About Uncirculated and the lower Mint State grades. Near-Gem and better examples are elusive, however.
The apricot-gold surfaces of this Gem display sky-blue and lilac accents. Sharply struck design elements are mildly frosted, and stand amidst the reflective fields, especially when titled slightly under a light source. A few grade-consistent marks do not detract from the coin's pleasing overall appeal. Population: 4 in 65, 2 finer (3/09).
From The American Princess Collection of $3 Gold.(Registry values: N7079)
