Struck in 1852, this Three Cent Silver—popularly called a “Trime”—is a remarkable survivor from one of America’s most unique coinage experiments. Graded MS66+ by PCGS, it is among the finest known examples, boasting sharp detail, satiny luster, and exceptional surfaces. The CAC sticker further affirms its premium quality within the grade, indicating it meets the highest standards for eye appeal and strike. Issued during a time when small-denomination silver coins were in high demand, this piece reflects a fascinating chapter in U.S. minting history.

The Type 1 design, created by Chief Engraver James B. Longacre, features a six-pointed star on the obverse with a shield at its center, symbolizing national unity. The reverse displays a large Roman numeral III within a C-shaped wreath, denoting its three-cent value. Its diminutive size and elegant design make it a favorite among collectors of early U.S. silver coinage. With its superb preservation, distinguished pedigree, and historical significance, this 1852 Trime is a true prize for any advanced numismatic collection.
