Description
1856 Three Cent, PR66
Variegated Array of Colors
Scarce Proof Strike
1856 3CS PR66 NGC. The three-cent pieces dated 1854 to 1858
have two lines bordering the the six-pointed star. Here, the
smallest of all Untied States silver coins is imbued with a
scintillating array of colors that grace the surfaces of this
trime, ranging from apricot to steel blue to russet. The reverse
appears bejeweled in areas of mustard, lime-green, and
electric-blue, creating stunning eye appeal. About 40 to 50
examples of this proof issue survive, but the original mintage is
unknown, as the Mint did not start publishing those figures until
1859. NGC Census: 4 in 66 (1 in 66+), 0 finer (12/25).(Registry values: N7079)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 27C3, PCGS# 3703, Greysheet# 3655)
