1889 Three-Dollar Gold Piece. MS-63 (PCGS). CAC.，Handsome honey-gold surfaces display a tinge of pale rose under a light. The strike is quite full for the type, particularly evident at the top of Libertys headdress on the obverse and at the ribbon that binds the base of the wreath on the reverse. This example is lustrous and overall smooth with eye appeal to spare. The final three-dollar gold issue, the 1889 has a circulation strike mintage of just 2,300 coins. Survivors are scarce to rare in todays market, with Mint State examples probably numbering fewer than 300 pieces.，From the A.J. Vanderbilt Collection.，
