- Ex Simpson Collection, as noted on the insert. A truly fabulous example of this RARE date! Only 4,500 three cent silvers were struck in 1869. Our sister firm, Legend Numismatics, has built many of the top PCGS Registry Sets of this obsolete and odd denomination, and has handled many of the FINEST KNOWN pieces. This is the piece that they placed into the world famous SIMPSON Collection, which means the quality and eye appeal are off the charts! Typical of the low mintage issues of this type, the fields show off a bold, polished, semi-Prooflike reflection that dazzles the eye. Both sides have a lovely hint of iridescent toning that attests to the originality. Hints of violet, blue, pale green, and gold colors frame the sharply struck, frosty devices. There is a soft contrast between the fields and design elements. There is a tiny mark on the reverse, which is all that we think holds it back from a 66+ or a CAC bean. The eye appeal is truly spectacular. PCGS 10, NGC 10. This coin sold for $11,750 in our February 2021 Regency Auction and the current PCGS price Guide value is listed at $15,000. A superb example worthy of a world class set. Cert. Number 6666654 PCGS # 3689
