Description
1783 J. Chalmers Threepence, XF40
Seldom Encountered Denomination
1783 3PENCE Chalmers Threepence XF40 PCGS. Breen-1018, W-1760,
R.5. Annapolis, Maryland silversmith John Chalmers issued small
silver coins in 1783, denominated as threepence, sixpence, and
shillings. His shillings are most frequently encountered today, and
his sixpence are least frequently seen. Although Chalmers earned a
profit from his silver coins, they were well-respected and filled a
void in commerce in the late 18th century. This attractive example
has delicate rose and champagne toning on its pleasing blue-steel
surfaces. A well-centered impression shows full border details on
the obverse and partial border details on the reverse. Population:
3 in 40, 7 finer (12/14).Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 2AUP, PCGS# 592, Greysheet# 86)
