Beautiful Silver 3¢ piece. Have you tried polishing out the scratches on the case?

Nice 3 cent,maybe low graded I strongly agree with this point of view. This example should be used as a reference under the relatively strict standards at that time. I think the real evaluation should be higher. In addition, I would like to express my greetings to you. |

... that's a great example of a classic, obsolete U.S. coin, Quan, & it's eye appeal shines through the case scratches.
... it is my understanding that PCGS has "relaxed" (lowered) their grading standards recently, so, you may receive a higher grade if you re-submit the coin.
...Personally, I'd just leave it in it's current slab, & say "phooey" to the MS63 rating .. it's better than that ...
...Thank you for sharing this beautiful coin with us ...

I would definitely test this one something worthless before using it here, unless you are otherwise committed to sending it in for re-holdering. |

For purposes of better photos, and assuming you photograph your slabbed coins with them laying flat, you can put a dollop of compass oil or mineral oil over the coin. Make sure it is free of bubbles, and that it spreads out further than the edges of the coin in the exposure you make. This is a way to temporarily hide those scratches, allowing you to better see the surfaces of the coin.
As others have said, that's a lovely 3cs (3 cent silver, as opposed to 3cn which is the 3 cent nickel coin).
