    Description

    In terms of its design, AIRD-3 is a mule. The obverse imitates the AIRD series, but the reverse design is taken from AERD.
    Some would argue that the variety does not belong in the Hart set, but Zerbe-as-M.E. Hart makes no reference to the pinch denomination in either his mailing card or frame.
    NGC has also repeatedly identified the variety as a Hart set entry.
    Most likely, the variety was struck circa-1915 for sale at the
    Panama-Pacific International Exposition.
    This is a RARE gold piece from Alaska, part of Hart's Coins of the West series. Rarely seen for sale.
