1862 Three-Dollar Gold Piece. AU-58 (ICG).
Only 5,750 $3 gold pieces came off the dies during this Civil War year. As the war raged in the East, gold and silver coin was actively hoarded; many of the coins struck then reentered circulation in the decade following the war. This minimally circulated example has a rich gold patina and just a bare trace of wear on the well struck devices. Scarce in all grades and rare finer, this is a great coin that will reward close inspection.
