FROM THE BIGMO CIVIL WAR COLLECTION This coin is absolutely magnificent! The quality is SUPER HIGH END. Flawless surfaces are superior to most we see on all Mint State 3 cent silver pieces. The luster is really strong and flashes boldly from all over, and there are traces of semi-prooflike mirrors providing some slight contrast. Even using a strong glass all you will see are light Mint made striations and die clashes; there are ZERO problems to be found and we think the strong die clashing is what kept this from MS67 (it should not have). Some light golden brown, blue, and champagne toning is splashed all over. Every detail is needle sharp in strike. The eye appeal is really pretty! After Sherman's march east to the Atlantic, his army turned north, its goal was to meet with Grant's Army in Virginia, to provide reinforcements. To discuss the strategy for the final actions of the war, Lincoln, Grant, Sherman, and other high ranking Union officers met on March 27, 1865 at City Point, Virginia. Within a week, the Union forces broke the rebel lines surrounding Petersberg. Only 8,000 were minted for circulation. PCGS 9, NGC 15, CAC 10 (probably duplicates in this number). PCGS has graded 9 higher. The last PCGS MS66 CAC piece to sell in auction brought $7,638 in our January 2018 Regency Auction (this coin, from our offering of the Ipswich Collection). The current CAC CPG value for this date and grade is $5,750. We think there will be some really strong bidders here, good luck and be ready! Cert. Number 34347781 PCGS # 3685
