Lot Description

The first proposal for a three cent coin a year before they were struck for circulation. The design of a Liberty cap in a spray of rays and a palm branch around a large III on the reverse is among the most popular pattern types. Struck in silver with a plain edge, these are listed as Rarity-4. Deeply toned surfaces gleam with a bold underlying reflection. The eye appeal is totally original. PCGS 22, NGC 10, CAC 2. The only PCGS PR63 to sell this DECADE brought $4,560 in February 2021. The current Collectors Universe value is $3,750. Scarce any finer. Cert. Number 21870950 PCGS # 11536
