- The Unique $3 Gold from the Fairmont Collection 1855 Three-Dollar Gold Piece. EF-45 (PCGS). CAC. Original honey-gold surfaces display tinges of pale rose iridescence and faint remnants of mint luster in the protected areas around the design elements. By 1855, only the second year of production for this curious gold denomination, the three-dollar gold piece was not popular in commercial channels. Circulation strike production at the Philadelphia Mint that year dropped to 50,555 coins, as opposed to 138,618 coins struck in that facility the year before. The 1855 is still a relatively obtainable issue and it is a popular coin for type purposes. It is still much rarer than the first year 1854, to say nothing of the 1874 and 1878. This affordable Choice EF represents excellent value. Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection-Hendricks Set. PCGS# 7972. NGC ID: 25M6. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
