1850 Three Cent Silver in Silver, PR64
Judd-125 Original

1850 P3CS Three Cent Silver, Judd-125 Original, Pollock-147, R.4, PR64 PCGS. CAC. Ex: Harry W. Bass, Jr. Collection. A Liberty cap inscribed LIBERTY is surrounded by a glory of rays on the obverse, with the date, 1850, below. The reverse features a Roman numeral III inside a palm wreath with the statutory legend, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, around. Struck in silver with a plain edge. The latest edition of the Judd reference suggests a population of 71 pieces for this popular Gobrecht-designed three cent pattern, which copies the famous Cap and Rays motif first used for the 1836 gold dollar proposal. Blue and gold patina covers the antique silver surfaces of this CAC-approved near-Gem.
Ex: Purchased from Lee F. Hewitt (4/17/1972).
