The $3 Princess Gold coin, minted in 1872, is a notable example of collectible U.S. coins. It features a design by Chief Engraver of the U.S. Mint, James B. Longacre, and depicts a female figure representing Liberty adorned with a crown and the inscription "3 DOLLARS" on the obverse. The reverse showcases a laurel wreath encircling the denomination.
