Lot Description

1863 Silver Three-Cent Piece. Proof-66 Cameo (NGC). This wonderfully original specimen exhibits dominant silver-rose iridescence that yields to bolder steel-blue around the obverse periphery. Highly reflective, the fields support frosty, fully impressed motifs. Among the finest certified from a mintage of just 460 Proofs for this challenging Civil War era date, and sure to see spirited bidding from discerning numismatists. NGC Census: 10; with a single Proof-67 Cameo finer in this category. PCGS# 83712. NGC ID: 22ZP. Click here for certification details from NGC.
