While I know value/unpopular will rear it&#039;s ugly head when I ever sell it still represents a fun completable short set of the ill fated odd denomination gold coins made in New Orleans with the influx of California gold. The multiple designs that have continuity between the series and the date run that the 3$ fills in nicely was a fun challange. Being able to add a mint error even better. Still looking for that perfect 3$ piece but here is the set so far.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.pcgs.com/setregistry/showcase.aspx?sc=2425" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.pcgs.com/setregistry/showcase.aspx?sc=2425" rel="nofollow">http://www.pcgs.com/setregistry/showcase.aspx?sc=2425</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
