The 3 Cent Silver coin, issued by the United States Mint from 1851 to 1873, is a rare denomination designed to facilitate small transactions during a time of rising inflation. The 1863 version of the 3 Cent Silver coin, made primarily of silver, features a distinctive design with a star encircled by the words "United States of America." Collectors highly value the 1863 3 Cent Silver coin, especially in high-grade conditions, due to its limited mintage and historical significance during the Civil War era.
