详细说明

1851-O Silver Three-Cent Piece. Red Book Label. MS-65 (NGC). Lovely satin surfaces are untoned including the often-toned peripheries. Alone among mintmarked issues in the silver-three cent series of 1851 to 1873, the first year 1851-O is extremely popular among series specialists and New Orleans Mint enthusiasts alike. A limited mintage of 720,000 pieces and a high rate of attrition suffered through circulation explains why even worn survivors are scarce in today's market. Mint State survivors are obtainable with patience in grades through MS-64, however, but as a Gem the 1851-O is rare. Provenance: From the Birdwatcher Type Set, with a portion of the proceeds to benefit The Nature Conservancy. NGC Census: 48; 17 finer. PCGS# 3665. NGC ID: 22YY.
