1887 Three-Dollar Gold Piece. VP-001. Doubled Die Obverse. MS-62 (NGC).A second Mint State example of this underrated late date three-dollar gold issue. This is a sharply struck coin with a full endowment of soft satin luster. Pretty golden-orange patina blankets surfaces that are exceptionally smooth for the assigned grade. The example offered here represents the scarcer variety of the issue, a loupe revealing fairly bold doubling to the letters RICA in AMERICA.
