Description
1858 Three Cent Silver, PR64
Ex: Wolfson-Pittman
1858 3CS PR64 NGC. CAC. Ex: Pittman. The Guide Book
mintage 210 pieces is an estimate, since Mint records are not
definitive on the number of proofs struck in 1858 for this
denomination. In the Pittman catalog, David Akers wrote, "Several
hundred were minted and at least 125-150 still exist." This was the
first year of proof set coinage at the Mint wherein the sets were
marketed to the general public. The present Choice proof three cent
silver piece is sharp and well preserved with russet and tan-gold
toning -- as it appeared in the Pittman sale in 1997. CAC
endorsement adds to the appeal. Census: 40 in 64 (1 in 64+★
), 43 finer. CAC: 7 in 64, 17 finer (6/21).Ex: Samuel W. Wolfson, Part II (Stack's, 5/1963), lot 294, to John Jay Pittman; John Jay Pittman Collection, Part I (Akers, 10/1997), lot 408.(Registry values: N2998)
