I am in for MS64 if there is no rub on it. What do you think is going on with the wreath? Grease filled? Pretty neat that the III lines are still in good shape if the wreath is grease filled. That is one fine 3cn!

Compare the OP coin to the NGC graded example that appears to be the same die pairing.http://www.ebay.com/itm/1875-3-CENT...em4179f930b0

Wow. Just wow. This is not.at.all what I expected to see when I clicked this thread - a semi-key 3CN with "any sane collector would lust for this" character. What a tremendous coin.

In truth, I don't think it makes 65 from a TPG. These are not common in high grade; only about 100 exist in TPG slabs at 65 and better. I'm expecting strike quality to come into play with this coin, at this level, and yours has a bit of weakness.

I'd throw $300 at it, without hesitation.

If I had $300.

dave700x I agree with you. I think this one is a later die state than the ncg example; I do not see the die crack in the wreath in the ncg one. Thoughts?

Sorry, Kelly, I didn't mean to be accusatory.

I think it's an FS301 and a superior example to the NGC specimen in the ebay auction.
