Graded NGC MS 61. Please see the images for more details on the condition of the coin.

The United States three cent piece was a unit of currency equaling 3/100 of a United States dollar. The mint produced two different three-cent coins for circulation: the three-cent silver and the three-cent nickel. Additionally, a three-cent bronze coin was made as a pattern in 1863. During the period from 1865 to 1873, both coins were minted, albeit in very small quantities for the silver three-cent piece.
