coins \ Coin \ United States of America \ 3cN \ 3-Cent Nickels
The 3 Cent Nickel, officially known as the Three-Cent Piece, was minted in the United States from 1865 to 1889. Made of a nickel-copper alloy, it features a design by Leonard C. Wyon, showcasing a shield on the obverse and a large "3" on the reverse. Initially created to facilitate commerce, particularly for the purchase of newspaper subscriptions, the coin became less relevant after the introduction of the larger nickel in the 1880s. Collectors often seek various types and grades of 3 Cent Nickels, with specific dates and mint marks commanding higher premiums.
