Description
The 1889 Proof Three Dollar Pattern - J-1756a is a proof three-dollar pattern struck at the Philadelphia Mint, part of the Design Reform Patterns (1880-1942) series. It was struck from the regular 1889 three-dollar dies. The single known example was first described in 1985, and USPatterns.com thinks it was more likely struck for sale to a collector than as a trial. It is struck in copper with a reeded edge. USPatterns.com lists it as unique. It is also catalogued as Pollock-1970. Cataloged as PCGS #62202.
