1853. PCGS graded MS-63 PQ. Housed in a First Generation Holder. A nice example. The silver three-cent pieces of 1851-53 were struck in a composition of .750 silver and .250 copper. In 1854, and throughout the remaining years of the series, the coins were produced from a composition of .900 silver and .100 copper, thus finally measuring up to all the other silver denominations of the era (PCGS # 3667) .
Estimated Value $275 - 300.

 
Realized $322
