Lot Description

1873 Silver Three-Cent Piece. Proof-64+ Deep Cameo (PCGS). CAC. Final year of issue for the three-cent silver series, the 1873 is also a proof only delivery with a mintage of 600 pieces. This is a blazing-white, fully untoned specimen that sports profound field to device contrast. Generally smooth, a few extremely minor blemishes hardly deny full Gem quality. Very rare with a DCAM finish as certified by PCGS, and worthy of a strong bid, as such.
