Three Dollar Gold Pieces
1854-O $3 AU55 NGC. Variety 2. The lapped variety with attenuated details on the wreath ribbon. The 1854-O is the only New Orleans issue of the denomination, and is requisite for a type set from the Southern facility. This lightly circulated apricot-gold example has occasional small strike-throughs, as made and usual for the issue. Abrasions are few, although bright marks near the left ribbon end and the AM in AMERICA are worthy of passing mention.
From The Hotel Harrington Collection.
