coins \ Coin \ United States of America \ $3 (Three Dollars)
The United States three-dollar coin, also known as the "three-dollar gold piece," was introduced in 1854 and issued until 1889. It was primarily created to facilitate gold transactions and was minted in 90% gold and 10% copper. The coin features various designs, with the most notable being the Liberty Head and Indian Princess designs. Due to its limited mintage and unique denomination, the three-dollar coin is considered a rare and collectible item among numismatists, often commanding high prices in the auction market.
