1852 Three Cent Silver Trime 3CS AG About Good Type 1 75% Silver Early US Coin

The Three Cent Silver, often called the trime, was the smallest silver coin ever struck by the U.S. Mint. This is a Type 1 trime from 1852, the year with the largest mintage of the series, struck in 75% silver.

This exact coin grades AG (About Good) in our opinion. The legend and date are mostly worn away, and only part of the 5 shows at the bottom. A long, deep scratch runs across the reverse through the III and the C, and there are scratches on the obverse star and dark toning and stains near the rim on both sides. Please view all of the close-up photos.

The date on this coin is partly worn. The 1852 date is taken from the holder it came in, written by a previous owner; that is how we received the coin.

SHIPPINGEvery coin we sell ships in protective packaging — no exceptions. The exact container depends on the shipping class: for example, our Standard Envelope option is limited to a maximum of 1/4" thickness, so a bubble mailer isn’t used there. Instead, coins travel in a vinyl flip, a thick baggie, or a cardboard flip, whichever best protects that particular coin. We ship daily, Monday through Friday, excluding all USPS holidays.
RETURNS / GUARANTEEWe maintain (unless otherwise noted on items like bullion) a 30-day, FREE-to-you return policy. All we want is happy customers — if you don’t like what we send, just send it back, free of charge.
QUESTIONS? CONTACT USContact us Monday–Friday, 9–5 EST, with any questions or concerns. Our number one goal is happy customers who buy from us time and time again. If you ever have an issue, please let us know — and remember, our return policy above has you covered.
GRADING DISCLAIMERWe arrive at an approximate grade using a combination of our own years of experience and, increasingly, Artificial Intelligence (AI). We are not a professional grading service, and any grade shown is only an approximation — please make your own determination based on the photos provided.
