Lot Description

Vivid blue, rose and gold undertones backlight warm steel-olive patina. Both sides are boldly to sharply struck with outstanding surface preservation. The penultimate Proof in the silver three-cent series, the 1872 has a generous mintage of 950 pieces. Survivors are among the most frequently encountered of their type in today's market, although we caution bidders that few are as carefully preserved and attractively original as this premium quality Gem.
