1868 Three-Dollar Gold Piece. MS-63 (PCGS).Enchanting frosty to semi-prooflike surfaces are further adorned with vivid rose-gold patina. A sharply struck, uncommonly well preserved example that will please the discerning gold enthusiast. The 1868 has an above average rate of survival for an 1860s three-dollar gold issue, and survivors are more available than a mintage of 4,850 circulation strikes might imply. Most are lightly worn, however, and the issue is scarce to rare in all Mint State grades. This is an exceptionally attractive MS-63 that is sure to sell for a strong bid.From the Maurice Snow Collection. Acquired from Harry J. Forman, February 21, 1979. Earlier ex Stanley Kesselman.
