Three Dollar Gold Pieces
1878 $3 MS64 PCGS. Three dollar gold production jumped to 82,304 coins in 1878 with the expectation that demand for gold coinage would increase as paper money reached parity with the yellow metal. Rose-gold dominates this frosty Choice Uncirculated offering. Accents of green and a few coppery alloy spots provide additional color. Softness is limited to the cotton bolls and wreath. A lovely, minimally marked type coin.
