3 Cent    (sold for $8000.0)

1857. PCGS graded Proof 65 PQ. Lovely blue toning. Only 75 minted. The 1857 is the final Proof year before the Mint increased production in 1858 and made Proof coins available to the public. It is estimated that close to 75 pieces were struck. The Breen Proof encyclopedia's estimate (from 1977) suggests as few as 18-20 pieces are available now to collectors. This Gem is deeply toned with blue toning that yields every now and again to warm russet gold and magenta hues over either side. Close inspection with a glass shows extra sharp star borders and legends, and incredibly sharp reverse design features where all leaf veins are clearly seen in the little sprig above the Roman III, while the arrow feathers and arrow heads too are so bold it is hard to believe. Nice reflective fields on each side. Pop 11; 1 finer in 66 (PCGS # 3704) . Estimated Value $10,000 - 11,000. Categories: Three Cent Pieces
