1873 Open 3 Three Cent Nickel, MS65

The Open 3 logotype was employed for about two thirds of the three cent nickels coined in 1873 (783,000 pieces), but in high grades the two varieties are surprisingly similar in scarcity. This Gem Open 3 representative displays soft golden-gray toning, with boldly render design elements and minimally disturbed, satiny luster. Census: 12 in 65 (1 in 65+), 3 finer (4/15).(Registry values: N1793)
