Description
1862 Three Cent Silver, PR67
Vivid Iridescent Toning
1862 3CS PR67 NGC. After two high-mintage years in 1860 and
1861, the Mint reduced proof output to just 550 examples. Breen
notes in his Proof Encyclopedia that some 430 silver proofs
sets were sold over the course of the year, and remaining sets were
melted. The central motifs are heavily frosted and contrast against
moderately mirrored fields. The multicolor toning almost certainly
prevents a Cameo designation, especially on the reverse. However,
what the surfaces lack in reflectivity they make up for in
eye-appealing patina. Iridescent hues of rose-violet, peach-orange,
blue, and green invest this Superb Gem proof with magnificent
aesthetic quality to match its high technical grade.Purchased from Pinnacle Rarities (2/2004); Eugene H. Gardner Collection, Part III (Heritage, 5/2015), lot 98110.
