Lot 1194		1854. ICG graded AU-53. Enough golden luster remains to easily justify the grade. *Estimate Value $600 - 650* View details and enlarged photos	Realized $810
Lot 1195		1854. PCGS graded AU Details, Cleaned. (PCGS # 7969) Estimate Value $400 - 450 View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $750
Lot 1196		1854-D. PCGS graded AU-50. Well struck with golden-orange mint luster adhering to the devices on both sides. Rare and always in demand as not only the first year of issue but the only Dalonega Mint $3.00 gold coin. Curiously despite a tiny mintage of only 1,120 struck, the survival rate for this date and mint is estimated to be around 300 pieces. Perhaps a much larger portion were saved as the first of their kind in 1854 when the $3 gold series was launched. The popularity of this date and mint never diminishes, hence these always bring a strong price when a nice example like this appears on the market.
