Three Dollar Gold Pieces
1856-S $3 AU58 NGC. The Medium S mintmark is the same size as the S in STATES, while a small "mound" sits atop the top loop of the mintmark, an anomaly some suggest is the remnants of a Small S beneath the primary mintmark. This near-Mint example displays pleasing orange-gold color and not too many marks for the near-Mint grade. Mint luster remains in protected areas. Census: 69 in 58 (1 in 58+), 24 finer (3/17).
