Introduction des pièces de monnaie
In 1882, the Philadelphia Mint was busy pumping out over 11 million Morgan silver dollars, most of which ended up sitting in government vaults. Due to this huge silver dollar mintage, the production of other denominations suffered greatly. For example, only a mere 1500 business strike and 76 proof $3 gold pieces were struck that year. The mint-state pieces all feature a re-punched 2 in the date, which can help to differentiate proof like examples from actual proofs. It seems a fair number of the mint state coins were saved.En savoir plus
