Lot 1249
1862 $3 Gold. EF-40. This looks to be one of Breen's nondistinct necklines (#6367) which was the result of heavy die polishing to remove clash marks. Libertys' neck seems to blend into the surrounding field. Noted to be "very rare" by Breen. Only 5,750 struck in all, most of which circulated well beyond this coin. Minor handling marks visible with a glass.
