Description
1870 Three Cent Silver, MS67+
Attractive Condition Census Example
1870 3CS MS67+ PCGS. CAC. Ex: Simpson. By 1870, the three
cent silver piece had fallen out of use in commerce. Only 3,000
examples were struck, compared to more than 1.3 million examples
struck of the three cent nickel that year. The finest examples
certified are an MS67 and two MS67+ coins at PCGS, and an MS68★ at
NGC (2/21). All three coins in MS67 and MS67+ are CAC endorsed. The
Simpson specimen displays beautifully preserved, satiny surfaces
that glisten through shades of pastel lavender, blue, gold, and
mint-green toning. Slight strike softness in the center of the
shield reminds collectors that this is a business strike and not a
proof. Clearly one of the finest examples extant. Population: 3 in
67 (2 in 67+), 0 finer. CAC: 3 in 67, 0 finer (1/21).(Registry values: N4719)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 22ZL, PCGS# 3691, GSID# 3637)
