1922/1 Overdate Threepence PCGS F12

I don’t often get the 1922/1 overdate threepence in stock, so when I was offered the above coin, graded PCGS F12, I had to take it. Like the 1930 penny, the 1922/1 overdate threepence is very popular with collectors, but, unlike the 1930 penny, it’s actually rare. I’ve had only four overdate threepences in stock since 2007, and only two were gradable by PCGS (this one, and another). Because most 1922/1 overdates tend to be in poor condition, they are often rejected by PCGS for faults such as a bent or chipped planchet, large scratches or graffiti, and field indentations. The example for sale above is one of the nicer examples I have seen in the market for a while, and one of the few specimens that actually has some eye appeal. Moreover, its dark fields suggest that the coin is totally original and untouched by cleaning. It is one of nine 1922/1 overdate threepences graded by PCGS (10/13), and, although not the finest, it’s certainly one of the more affordable certified overdates to come onto the market in a while. The new owner will be very pleased with this piece. Professional Coin Grading Service is the global leader in coin authentication and grading. With over 60 million coins graded and counting, PCGS is trusted by collectors, dealers, and investors to certify authenticity, protect value, and elevate market confidence. This is a direct conversion of the 70-point PCGS grade to a 10-point scale, intended to present the grade in a more intuitive format for newer collectors. It is not our personal opinion or an attempt at regrading the coin to a different standard.
