详细说明

A very scarce Mint State $3. With a mintage of 34,500, it is quite difficult to obtain in any grade above XF, as noted by David Akers in his survey of the series (out of 177 auction appearances, 116 of them graded VF or lower)! The present coin is a new find, fresh to the market. Pleasing, original color shows off a satin-like frost that accents a strong strike. The surfaces do show some light hairlines and an old mark on the obverse that account for the assigned grade. Delightfully eye appealing, this is a date that is rarely seen in this grade. PCGS 7, NGC 12. It has been almost four years since the last PCGS MS61 sold in auction, realizing $11,831 in November 2014. The current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $14,000 and keep in mind that there are only 10 coins finer at PCGS, the finest grading MS64. A real prize for the $3 gold collector! Cert.
