Offered here is an 1853 Three Cent Silver, the tiny “trime” that holds the title of smallest silver coin the United States ever made. This is the Type I design (1851–1853) with the plain six-pointed star — a coin created to buy a postage stamp, and a conversation piece in any collection.
This Coin
- Grade: Very Good — bold star with clear shield lines, full date, strong reverse C-scroll and Roman numeral III
- Some softness in the legends as typically struck on these tiny planchets
- Over 170 years old and genuinely scarce in any grade
