1868 Three Cent Silver, Cameo PR66
Deeply Mirrored, Nicely Toned

1868 3CS PR66 Cameo PCGS. CAC. Some 476 non-Cameo 1868 proof three cent silver pieces, from an original proof mintage of 600 coins, have been certified by PCGS and NGC. On the other hand, only 54 '68 proofs have been assigned the Cameo designation. The obverse features a melange of amber-gold, crimson, and cobalt-blue. The reverse displays a similar color pattern, but it is confined to the borders, leaving the center nearly untoned. The design elements are well executed, and the surfaces are nicely preserved. A small lint mark is located beneath the first T of STATES, and what appear to be two fine, short die scratches extend from the lower right portions of the shield. Population: 6 in 66 Cameo, 0 finer (7/11).
