Description
1869 Three Cent Silver, MS67
One of Two Finest at NGC
Rare Repunched Date
1869 3CS MS67 NGC. Breen-2959. Repunched 69, "Very Rare" per
Breen (1988). The tumultuous Civil War years resulted in a sharp
drop in silver trime issues beginning in 1863 and lasting through
the end of the business strike series in 1872. The 1869
circulation-strike mintage was only 4,500 pieces, making the issue
extremely rare in Mint State. The present Superb Gem offering is
one of the two finest seen at NGC (7/13). Both sides are awash with
intense luster, and each exhibits needle-sharp design elements.
Close inspection reveals near-pristine surfaces. The synergistic
combination of these attributes yields stunning eye appeal. An
unobtrusive mark to the right of the 9 is mentioned solely to help
pedigree the coin.From The Zack Fluhr Collection.(Registry values: N2998)
