1863/2 Three Cent Silver, PR66 Cameo
Elusive
Guide Book Variety

1863/2 3CS PR66 Cameo PCGS. CAC. This is an interesting, seldom seen variety of the proof 1863 three cent silver, with what appears to be an underlying 2 evident beneath the primary 3 in the date. This variety is listed in the Guide Book and recognized by PCGS, even if absent from the Cherrypickers' reference. PCGS has attributed only 48 examples in all grades, with just 15 pieces in the Cameo category. This Premium Gem representative displays sharp, frosty design elements set against deep, glassy fields that showcase blended rose-gold and aquamarine toning. Close examination with a lens confirms a tack-sharp strike, with no distracting marks or hairlines. Population: 6 in 66 (3 in 66+) Cameo, 1 finer (3/15).(Registry values: P3)
