With a mintage of 800 coins, the 1859 Proof Three Cent Silver is a better date for its type. It is more common up through PR63 but gains some scarcity in PR64 and PR65. PR66 and finer gems are considered very rare as there are notable value jumps following PR65. Cameo pieces are far more difficult to locate in all grades. Look for attractive toners as this series has many.
