1855 Silver Three-Cent Piece. MS-65 (PCGS).This charming example exhibits splashes of olive-russet patina that are most extensive over the lower right obverse. Predominantly brilliant with a softly frosted finish and bold to sharp striking detail. The Type II design of 1854 to 1858 is the scarcest in the silver three-cent series, and with a mintage of just 139,000 circulation strikes the 1855 is the rarest issue of the type. Phenomenal Gem Mint State quality for this challenging issue that would do justice to any advanced collection.PCGS Population: 17; 10 finer (MS-67 finest).
