Well.....allow me to chime in here Quintus. In looking at the coin, it's very crudely made. The lettering and the numerals in the date are very crude and entirely incorrect for a genuine 1861 3 Cent. On the reverse, the Roman numeral Is that make up the III are incorrect and are not aligned with one another, as they would be on a genuine coin. And the look of this piece is entirely wrong. For the contributor's and others' review, I have posted photos of a genuine 1861 3 Cent, courtesy of our host's Coin Explorer page. Once you see the real thing, the problems with the other 1861 3 Cent are readily apparent:

That little tick under the OF would preclude a 70. There is also a mark above the rightmost ray on the obverse. And several marks on her right arm. Nice coin though. I love walkers! Many have this "halo" on the obverse.

Those are some sweet 3 cent silvers. One of my favorite coins. Hopefully I will be able to afford a nice one like those above one of these days. This one is the only one i own for now. Not very nice but i still enjoy it.
