Lot 1876
1864 $3 Gold. NGC graded MS-62. Nice light golden toning. Low mintage date and scarce in mint state. A crisply struck $3 gold piece glowing with ember orange glow from the fields, the devices smooth and satiny. A solidly graded, choice example, this coin displays impressive striking definition for a Civil War dated coin. This is meant to say that the strike is detailed, including those strands of hair over Liberty's brow and in the central area above the ear which often keep this from full definition. The low mintage of the 1864 issue impresses us further: 2,630 pieces. Pop 7; 13 finer.
Estimated Value $7,000 - 7,500.
