Description
Gem Proof 1888 INDIAN PRINCESS $3, certified PR65+DCAM by PCGS, presents as a carefully preserved example of its issue. Its visual appeal is led by mirrored fields, deep cameo contrast; high-grade preservation. The three-dollar gold denomination had a short and unusual role in American coinage, making high-grade survivors especially interesting to gold specialists. The Bass pedigree adds a further layer of provenance, a point of real interest to collectors who track important cabinets. Original production is recorded at only 291 pieces. Certification records note only a single graded finer. Gold specialists will appreciate the way date, mint, and grade converge in this certified example.
