1872 $3 Barber''s Amazonian Head Three Dollars, Judd-1
<B>1872 $3 Barber's Amazonian Head Three Dollars, Judd-1236, Pollock-1378, Low R.7, PR63 Gilt NGC.</B></I> William Barber's "Amazonian Gold" design, similar to the gold dollar pattern except the denomination is expressed as THREE DOL. Struck in copper with a reeded edge. Once again, intricate design details are different on this denomination. The lowest hair curl by the date has forked ends pointing down, and star 13 touches the middle curl. Liberty's bust tip is nearly vertical, unlike the other denominations that have a distinct bust point or tip. Star 1 is almost entirely below the bust line. Satiny surfaces with brilliant yellow color and minor orange toning spots. Small lint marks are visible on the cheek and lower neck. This is an important pattern variety, one of few three dollar patterns that has a design different from the regular Indian Head design.<BR><I>From The Jones Beach Collection.</B></I><BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coin/Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
