Description THIS IS A VERY RARE 1860-S $3.00 ANACS SLABBED AU-50 GOLD INDIAN PRINCESS, SEMI KEY DATE.   The $3.00 U.S. Gold Pieces were minted from 1854 through 1889.  Collectors know that, as a series, the $3.00 pieces are ALL rare coins, but a $3.00 Indian Princess with a Mint Mark like this one is exceptionally rare.  THE ONLY $3.00 PIECES WITH A MINT MARK ARE AS FOLLOWS:   (1) 1854 (Dalonega, Georgia); (2) 1854-O;  (3) 1855-S;  (4) 1856-S;  (5) 1857-S;  (6) 1860-S; and  (7) 1870-S.   The 1870-S is a unique coin, worth over $4,000,000.00 so it doesn't really "count".  There were only 7,000 1860-S coins ever made!  Out of the total series of 44 coins, 1860-S is a top-priced coin, trending at $9,000.00 for AU-50 (see 2009 Red Book).  This coin has unfortuneately been cleaned, with minor damage as can be seen in the pictures.  Because of this, we are offering this coin under HALF PRICE at $3,900.00.  The 1860's series is one of the hardest to collect because,  throughout the 1960's (unlike the 1850's and 1870's), less than 10,000 coins were struck annually at each Mint.   Beginning about 1878 these coins were saved by speculators, so for the last 11 years of the series, from 1878 until the series ended in 1889, there are fairly numerous examples of quality-condition coins.  Compared to the series as a whole, the $3.00 Indian Princess coins from the 1860's were minted in low numbers, AND were not frequently kept by speculators, making this coin difficult to obtain in any grade.   For a wide selection of even more old, rare coins, please visit our EBAY store at J.W.
