Masterful 1861 Die Struck 3-cent "copy"

dpvilla

Masterful example of a die struck 1861 3-cent piece. Contemporary to the period. Most likely German Silver. I have seen a few of these but none as nice as this one. UNCIRCULATED and lustrous. More flashy than the pic would indicate. The tiny "coppery" spots on the reverse are unfairly exaggerated in the photo. A bit unevenly struck at "STATES OF". This is not a cast copy. Someone went through a lot of trouble to produce the dies for this piece. $79 delivered in the US.
