Description du lot

Coin alignment. <strong>Obv:</strong> Similar to that used to strike regular issue 1868 nickel three-cent pieces, although set in a wide border. The date is expressed in small numerals. <strong>Rev:</strong> The Roman numeral III is surrounded by a wreath of corn, cotton, wheat and tobacco that is very similar to that used for the Flying Eagle cent. A lovely bright silver specimen with a boldly cameoed finish and a hint of pale champagne-gold iridescence on the reverse. Examples of this type were distributed as part of pattern Proof sets along with one cent and nickel five-cent pieces featuring a similar obverse design.
