<B>1879 $3 MS64 PCGS.</B></I> The 1879 has a low mintage of only 3,000 pieces, but Henry Chapman believed 2,000 or more were melted in the mint. Hoards of this date were held by Ben Green and John Beck. Thomas Elder distributed numerous examples of this date over the years, apparently from the Green holdings. The Beck estate was sold in the 1970s and more 1879s entered the market. Today, several hundred Mint State examples exist of this date, but only a few dozen are known finer than this piece. The surfaces are bright and prooflike with rich orange-gold color and a hint of lilac on the face of Liberty. Well struck with no mentionable marks on either side.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coin/Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
