Lot Description

1855 Silver Three-Cent Piece. MS-64 (PCGS). Pretty champagne-gold iridescence blends with satiny mint luster, both sides well struck and expectably smooth for the assigned grade. The Type II design of 1854 to 1858 is the scarcest in the silver three-cent series, and with a mintage of just 139,000 circulation strikes the 1855 is the rarest issue of the type. Impressive Choice Mint State quality for this challenging issue that would do justice to any advanced collection. PCGS# 3671. NGC ID: 22Z4. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
