A better date and the only three dollar gold coin struck at the New Orleans Mint. This is a desirable high-end XF with minor contact marks that are consistent with the grade.

CAC. A strange variety because the mintmark isn’t just too large, it’s also poorly shaped. This wasn’t a half dollar or dollar ‘O’ accidently used on a quarter die. The present coin is well detailed for the grade with well-worn but still very attractive coin-gray surfaces.

Beautiful yellow-gold luster flows across sharply struck and satiny surfaces. Marks are minor and of no consequence. A fantastic Type 2 near ‘Gem’ example with excellent eye appeal!

CAC. Strong detail with lustrous original surfaces.

CAC. Well detailed with choice original surfaces and underlying luster.

Boldly struck with rich satiny mint luster and just a touch of rub.

Sharply struck with light golden toning and strong underlying luster.

Well struck and lustrous with a white core accented by peripheral toning. Original and very nearly mint state.

Lustrous light olive-brown surfaces with a touch of red in the protected areas. Outstanding for the grade with strong eye appeal and no significant marks or spots.
