The Three Dollar gold piece, often referred to as the "Three Dollar Gold Coin," was issued by the United States Mint primarily from 1854 to 1889. The 1882 version was minted in Philadelphia and is part of a series designed by engraver James B. Longacre. This coin features a depiction of Liberty on the obverse and a wreath with an eagle on the reverse, made of 90% gold and containing 0.09 troy ounces of pure gold. Due to its limited mintage and unique denomination, the Three Dollar gold coin is highly sought after by collectors, particularly in higher grades.
