Description
Uncirculated Prooflike 1886 Three Dollar
1886 $3 MS61 Prooflike NGC. Given its low mintage of 1,000 pieces, it comes as little surprise that a number of 1886 three dollar pieces are prooflike. Those were struck shortly after a die pair was newly installed, when the dies still imparted a prooflike appearance from its preparation. Later strikes from the same dies instead show satiny or cartwheel luster. This is a precisely struck and flashy sun-gold example that lacks remotely mentionable marks. Census: 9 in 61 Prooflike, 11 finer (3/09).Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25N9, PCGS# 78008)
Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
Weight: 5.02 grams
AGW: 0.14511oz
Mintage: 1,000
