The 1851 Proof 3cS. Perhaps 4 exist. Something you just don’t see displayed and so glad I got to see it!

PS did anyone else note the color of the numbers. Assuming it was a code for higher value and or rarity

    Great coin, Jon. Considering your fascination with them, that had to be a highlight of the show for you. B)
    Pardon my cluelessness on inserts, but I don't understand what you mean by "the color of the numbers".

    I assume he refers to the orange background of the number 80, top right.
