1853 Three Cent Silver, XF Details
Mirror Brockage on Reverse

1853 3CS Three Cent Silver -- Mirror Brockage on Reverse -- Cleaned -- NGC Details. XF. Lilac and olive-gray toning covers each side, rendering the faint hairlines of an old cleaning unimportant. A perfectly centered, fairly sharp mirror brockage impression encompasses the reverse, caused by this coin being struck between the obverse die and another struck coin, which would have been retained in the press after its production by a failed ejection. Such errors on coins of this series are rare. We have seen a few similar pieces in the past, but none in recent years. Two thin pinscratches on the brockage side lower right quadrant serve as pedigree markers.
