1861 PCGS MS-63. 1861 PCGS MS-63.
Lot Title: 1861 PCGS MS-63.
Description: 180-degree die rotation is not noted on the PCGS slab. Value guides typically will show modest value for an 1861 3-cent in MS-63, but this example is far from modest (for a coin this small) . Eye-appeal on both sides readily flourishes from a huge (for a coin this small) display of deep rainbow toning, bestowed in wide bands (for a coin this small). They sure knew how to pack in a lot of eye-appeal -- for a coin this small. (PCGS# 003679)
Low Estimate: $350.00
High Estimate: $400.00

1861 MS-65.

240The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/12/2010$825.00
1861 PCGS MS-65.

1861 PF-64.
Incredibly, the beautiful cameo effect (DCAM?) was not designated on the NGC PF-64 holder from which this stunning GEM was removed. Technically, the term "gem" does not apply to coins graded below...

1861 PCGS MS-65.

1861 Three Cent silver AU-55
Brilliant surfaces display much prooflike character, particularly with the frosted appearance of the primary devices. Close to mint state, as a little disruption of the cartwheel luster is all that...
