This 1851-O Three Cent Piece represents a significant numismatic treasure, certified MS65 by PCGS. The coining of silver three-cent pieces was an odd move that was never repeated after this first year of production. Only 720,000 were issued, and the 1851-O is moderately scarce in all grades. The coin displays exceptional preservation with brilliant surfaces, sharp striking detail, and minimal contact marks. The MS65 grade places this specimen among the finest known examples of the 1851-O issue, making it highly desirable for collectors pursuing rare three cent pieces and branch mint coinage from the antebellum period. An outstanding example combining rarity, superior condition, and exceptional eye appeal.
