Indian Princess 3 Dollars Gold Coin $15.00 each. These extremely popular privately minted 24K Gold coins brings back the unique and mysterious Indian Princess design. This coin has a unique history and story behind it. Chief Engraver James Barton Longacre chose an image for the obverse that became known as the “Indian Princess”. This however was not a Native American profile, but actually a profile modeled after the Greco-Roman Venus Accroupie statue then in a Philadelphia museum. Longacre used this distinctive sharp-nosed profile on his gold dollar of 1849 and would employ it again on the Indian Head cent of 1859. On the three-dollar coin Liberty is wearing a feathered headdress of equal-sized plumes with a band bearing LIBERTY in raised letters. She’s surrounded by the inscription UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. Such a headdress dates back to the earliest known drawings of American Indians. Longacre’s design for the reverse features a wreath of tobacco, wheat, corn and cotton, with a plant at top bearing two conical seed masses. Encircled by the wreath is the denomination 3 DOLLARS and the date. These coins are not an official government issue, but are a privately minted commemorative issue that is clad in 99.9% pure premium 24K Gold! These coins are high quality collectables. These coins make a great gift or addition to your collection! Each coin comes in a sealed Mylar Coin flip to protect it. Photos show front and back views.
