Only 1,140 examples of this date were struck for circulation, and only about 100 have survived in all grades, typically in VF or slightly finer. Indeed, the Bowers-Winter reference considers this the rarest Philadelphia date in the series up to this point. As was the case in the several years leading up to 1865, the Philadelphia Mint sent two dies for the denomination to San Francisco but no $3s were forthcoming.

The example to the left was sold by Stack's Bowers Galleries in the D. Brent Pogue Part III Auction, where it realized $82,250.
