Description
1861 Three Cent Silver, PR66
Rich, Variegated Toning, Brightly Mirrored
1861 3CS PR66 PCGS. CAC. As with the other proof
denominations from this year, even though 1,000 pieces were struck
more than half were melted as unsold at year's end. The intervening
150+ years have taken a toll on the proofs that were distributed,
and today very few are known in high grades. This is a richly toned
example that shows deeply mirrored fields. The strike is complete,
a feature almost only seen proofs and rarely (if ever) on strikes
for circulation. Population: 4 in 66, 4 finer (9/13).(Registry values: N2998)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 27C8, PCGS# 3710, GSID# 3670)
Metal: 90% Silver, 10% Copper
Weight: 0.75 grams
ASW: 0.0217oz
