The 1858 Three Cent Silver is the last year of the Type 2's and of a high mintage type coin issue with over 1.6 million coins struck. Common issue all the way through MS63 with MS64 and MS65 being a bit tougher. High-grade gems can be extremely rare. Beware, similar negative diagnostics to previous issues, except that strong strikes can be found far more easily with this issue.
