<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnmilton, post: 26569249, member: 101855&quot;]This is the only &quot;old gold&quot; Proof coin I have. The Type III gold dollars are the most common pre 1933 gold pieces in the United States series. The mintage was 207 pieces.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1692827[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>The old gold coins have always been priced just beyond my budget unless I was prepared to make a big stretch. </p><p><br /></p><p>I sold this Matte Proof 1908 $10 gold when I was a dealer. The mintage on this one was 116. It is a lint mark on the date which probably lowered the grade to PR-65. I wish I had had the money to keep it, but that was impossible. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1692828[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Here is a Mint State piece which shows the difference between the Proof and Unc. pieces. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1692830[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
