Description
1873 Gold Dollar, Open 3 Variety, MS-63. This 1873 Gold Dollar represents a significant piece of American coinage history from the early Mint era. The piece exhibits the distinctive Open 3 variety, a notable characteristic among gold dollars of this date that appeals to both type collectors and variety specialists. Graded MS-63 by NGC (Certification #449775006), this example displays the luster and eye appeal expected of a Mint State specimen. The Open 3 variety, distinguished by the spacing of the numeral in the date, offers collectors an opportunity to acquire a recognized variety of this popular gold denomination during a period of important American monetary development. Gold dollars from the 1870s remain sought-after by collectors focused on pre-1933 United States gold coinage, particularly those pursuing complete date and variety sets. This example represents solid mid-grade Mint State condition for the issue.
