The 3 Cent Silver coin, also known as the 3cS, was minted in the United States from 1851 to 1873. It was created to facilitate small transactions and to serve as a convenient alternative to fractional currency during a time of economic change. The coin is composed of 90% silver and 10% copper, featuring an obverse with a profile of Liberty and a reverse showcasing the Roman numeral "III." Due to its limited mintage and unique denomination, the 3 Cent Silver is a sought-after collectible among numismatists.
