- Vividly Toned Superb Gem Uncirculated 1871 3CS
Scarce Low-Mintage Issue
1871 Silver Three-Cent Piece. MS-68 (NGC).
This 1871 silver three-cent piece is a Condition Census survivor of a low mintage, key date circulation strike issue. It is also a breathtakingly beautiful coin adorned with intensely vivid target toning in multiple iridescent shades. Cobalt blue, crimson red, golden-orange, powder blue and silver-lilac are all very much in evidence. A semi-prooflike finish shines forth powerfully as the surfaces dip into a light, both sides boldly struck overall with outstanding eye appeal. By 1871 silver three-cent pieces no longer served a useful purpose in commercial channels and the Philadelphia Mint produced only 3,400 circulation strikes that year. This phenomenal Superb Gem is among the finest survivors of that small mintage.
NGC Census: 3; 1 finer in this category (MS-68+ *).
PCGS# 3692. NGC ID: 22ZM.
