Regarding 3 cent silvers, they took a lot of abuse. I have one in XF with a rim dink but still a really nice coin
They sure did. Same with half dimes. A small, thin coin made out of soft metal is bound to get damaged easily.
The 1862 has a rim dink at 2 o’clock. nice coin despite the dink? The 1851 obviously is a special coin for me. 3 cent coins have a lot of interesting history. makes you want to watch a couple of seasons of Bonanza...
