Description
Near-Gem Proof 1854 Three Cent Silver
A Milestone Issue of the Series
1854 3CS PR64 PCGS. CAC. The year 1854 marks two important
milestones for the three cent silver series. First, it is the
beginning of the Type Two design with double-bordered star, a
design change linked to the shift in alloy from 75% silver to 90%
silver. Second, and more important for this specimen, is that 1854
is the first year for which proof three cent pieces are known in
any quantity, though the surviving population is small. Offered
here is a sharp near-Gem proof with watery reflectivity at the
green-gold margins and richer toning through blue-green inner rings
and pink-gray cores. Population: 7 in 64, 2 finer (6/11).From The Daryl J. Haynor Collection.(Registry values: N7079)
