- 1868 $3 AU58 NGC. For type collectors, the 1868 issue is desirable because of its high survival rate, and a mintage of only 4,850 pieces undoubtedly amplifies its appeal. This near-Mint example exhibits olive-green accents over otherwise deep yellow-gold surfaces. Typical for the issue, each side displays sharply struck devices and partial luster hidden within the protected areas. Wispy abrasions and minor marks are dispersed evenly throughout, with only a tick on Liberty's chin worthy of individual mention. NGC has certified 45 examples in higher numeric grades (8/14). Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. Realized $2352.35. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.

- 1866 $3 AU58 NGC. CAC. The date is scarce in all grades because of its mintage of only 4,000 coins. CoinFacts estimates that 500 examples are extant, just a small fraction of which are finer than the piece here offered. Already desirable because of its low production total, this near-Mint example's appeal is further enhanced by its aesthetic quality. Mildly prooflike and partly lustrous surfaces feature lemon-gold color overall with rose highlights. Liberty's hair and headdress are well struck, as is the lower wreath. Essentially imperceptible friction and scattered marks are the only elements that preclude an Uncirculated designation. NGC has certified 42 examples in AU58 and 45 pieces finer (8/14). Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. Realized $3055.00. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.

- 1865 $3 VF25 NGC. CAC. Less than half of 1865 three dollar gold coins were struck in Philadelphia (1,140 pieces) compared to the previous year. The result is the second-lowest mintage in the series from its inception in 1854 to 1880, excluding the 1854-D. The date is scarce in all grades, and this Very Fine representative serves as an excellent opportunity to affordably acquire an example. Deep reddish-gold color blankets stunningly original surfaces worthy of a CAC approval sticker. Little detail remains over the hair, yet LIBERTY and the headdress feathers are clear, as are the legends on each side. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. Realized $3290.00.

- 1863 $3 MS61 NGC. CAC. Ex: "Col." E.H.R. Green. By 1863, silver and gold coins had ceased to circulate on the East Coast or in the Midwest. Fractional currency dominated in commerce, and a significant premium was needed to exchange paper money for the unpopular three dollar gold pieces, accounting for the issue's low mintage of only 5,000 coins. In The United States $3 Gold Pieces (2005), Bowers and Winter note: "The true elusive nature of the 1863 is often overlooked, as low mintages also occur for most $3 coins in the 1880s, and those appear on the market with frequency. However, few 1863 coins were deliberately saved, and across the board they are quite rare." This amazing survivor offers peach-gold surfaces that radiate with glistening mint frost. The legends are sharply defined, while the plumes on Liberty's headdress and the wreath bow show slight indistinctness. The 1863 dies clashed early on in the minting process, and extensive clash marks appear over each side. Still, this is a minimally marked representative with strong visual appeal. Ex: "Colonel" E.H.R. Green; Green Estate; Partnership of Eric P. Newman / B.G. Johnson d.b.a. St. Louis Stamp & Coin Co.; Eric P. Newman @ $27.50; Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society.

- 1863 $3 MS66 NGC. Ex: "Col." E.H.R. Green. Heavy die polishing lines appear in abundance on the obverse of this Premium Gem 1863 three dollar gold piece, an effect that was created at the Mint by zealous personnel. These raised die polishing lines must not be confused with hairlines or any other post-Mint impairments. In fact, the surfaces are remarkably free of contact marks or ticks of any importance. The strike is unusually bold, showing a great wealth of detail in Liberty's hair, the feathers in the headdress, the details in the agricultural wreath on the reverse, and the venation on the lower leaves. Only the bowknot shows the slightest hint of strike softness. Greenish-gold field color contrasts nicely against the well-frosted khaki-gold devices. The mintage of the 1863 three dollar gold was 5,000 circulation strikes, meager for most series but typical for the low-mintage three dollar coins. The earlier dates, such as this piece dating not only from the 1860s but also the mid-Civil War era, were saved in much smaller numbers than the later issues from the 1880s. NGC reports five submissions in MS66 with four finer, including possible duplicates. Bowers estimates in his series reference that only 30 to 40 examples of the date survive in all Mint State grades. However, he also notes that among three dollar gold coins from the 1860s, "gems of 1863, while rare in an absolute sense, appear more often than do those of any other year." The present Premium Gem thus marks a dual opportunity to obtain a series rarity in remarkably high grade. Ex: "Colonel" E.H.R. Green; Green Estate; Partnership of Eric P. Newman / B.G. Johnson d.b.a.

- 1862 $3 AU55 NGC. Ex: "Col." E.H.R. Green. The issue's mintage of 5,750 coins is remarkably low in a larger context, yet it tends to get lost amongst the other low-mintage dates in the three dollar gold series. As a result, this scarce issue fails to command the attention it rightfully deserves. This Choice About Uncirculated example features light yellow and green-gold surfaces with partial luster in the interstices. The design motifs are typically bold with light friction over the high points, and a touch of incompleteness on Liberty's neck. Other than a handful of scattered marks, the only impairments that merit mention include a reed mark above Liberty's bust and a small linear depression to the right of the U in UNITED.
