1886 Three Dollar, One of Only 1,000 Business Strikes Produced

1886 $3 MS 63 PCGS. With a paltry original mintage of 1,000 business strikes, the 1886 is equally as rare as the other post-1878 issues in this series with the exception of the 1881. Simply put, this coin has the look of a higher grade. The color is a deep, vibrant, orange-gold shade, and both sides display a uniformly semi-prooflike finish. There are no singularly mentionable abrasions, but a few isolated swirls of haziness are noted for accuracy. Population: 4 in 63, 5 finer (12/00).
