1869 Three-Dollar Gold Piece. AU-53 (PCGS).Much of the prooflike finish remains on both sides of this bright, vivid, predominantly golden-yellow example. Wisps of iridescent reddish-gold are also present around the peripheries to further enhance already strong eye appeal. Sure to see spirited bidding among advanced gold collectors who are aware of the scarcity of survivors from this 2,500-piece circulation strike issue in todays market.From the Maurice Snow Collection. Acquired from Harry J. Forman, May 22, 1980. Earlier ex William Youngerman.
