The Three Dollar Gold Coin, often referred to as the "Three Dollar Piece," was minted by the United States from 1854 to 1889. The 1864 issue was produced at the Philadelphia Mint and is part of a series that featured a unique design by Chief Engraver James B. Longacre, showcasing a depiction of Liberty on the obverse and an olive wreath on the reverse. These coins were intended to facilitate trade and commerce, but due to their unusual denomination, they were not widely used, making them rare and highly sought after by collectors today. The 1864 Three Dollar Gold Coin is especially prized for its historical significance and limited mintage.
