Description
1883 Three Cent Nickel, MS67
Tied for Finest Known
1883 3CN MS67 PCGS. CAC. When the three cent nickel series
was introduced in 1865, the general public was still hoarding
silver coins -- a habit that began during the Civil War and would
continue through 1876. The highest denomination in circulation at
that time was the two cent piece. However, by 1883 silver coins
were once again in circulation and the three cent nickel
denomination was unnecessary. The result, of course, was mintages
for business strikes dropped. The 1883 has the third lowest mintage
for the denomination with a paltry 4,000 coins struck for
circulation. This is an attractive, sharply struck example whose
lustrous surfaces show just the slightest trace of golden patina.
