The $3 Indian Princess Comes Of Age

banner-shadow

The birth of the $3 Indian Princess gold coin has its roots in the Congressional Act of 1845, which established a three-cent piece for the purpose of facilitating the purchase U.S. Postal stamps. Eight years later, Congress enacted the Mint Act of February 21, 1853, which carried the logic of the 1845 Act further by creating a $3 gold coin thinking that it would encourage people to buy stamps in sheets of one hundred.

While the idea never really caught on, the resulting $3 Indian Princess gold coin has since become one of the favored numismatic coins among collectors everywhere. In fact, because of the relative rarity of surviving coins in mint state condition, they are considered to be one of the key "stopper" coins to completing a collection of all United States gold coins.

The Mike Fuljenz Metals Market Report

May 2012, Week 3 Edition

Gold and other commodities are down, partly because the U.S. dollar is UP to the euro. In the last two weeks, the euro has fallen from $1.324 to $1.288, mostly in reaction to the recent elections in France and Greece, which have put an end to the "age of austerity" in Europe and the beginning of a new era of monetary expansion in the euro-zone. By contrast, the U.S. had a positive April - the first monthly budget surplus since 2008. The U.S. economy is growing slowly, but fast enough to give the dollar a quick boost.
