1863/2 Three Cent Silver, PR65 Cameo
Great-Looking and Well-Contrasted

1863/2 3CS PR65 Cameo PCGS. CAC. This proof curiosity is listed in the 2014 Guide Book as a "so-called 3 over 2," but there is no doubt something connecting the lower portion of the 3 with the midsection; Cherrypickers' curiously omits this coin. Given the tiny proof mintage of 460 pieces and the low survival at this high grade at both services, we expect this piece will be equally treasured for its good aesthetics as well as its varietal characteristics. The silver-white surfaces show good contrast throughout both sides, the devices well-layered with mint frost. A great-looking example on all counts. Population: 1 in 65 Cameo, 3 finer (3/14).(Registry values: P3)
