1873 Three Cent Silver, PR66 Cameo
Beautifully Toned, Final-Year Example

1873 3CS PR66 Cameo PCGS Secure. CAC. Three cent silver coins were struck in proof format only in 1873, the year the denomination was abolished. It had been a while since these coins served any meaningful purpose in circulation. All 1873 specimens (600 minted) feature a Close 3 in the date. This is a richly toned Premium Gem with frosted motifs and glassy fields. Multicolor patina in shades of blue, green, violet, rose, and golden-orange fails to obscure the Cameo contrast. Population: 13 in 66 Cameo, 5 finer. CAC: 10 in 66, 5 finer (6/18).(Registry values: N2998)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 27CJ, PCGS# 83724, Greysheet# 3707)
