For the Three cent silver coins, the mintages for circulated strikes between 1863 and 1872 is low. Relatively few of these coins were used in commerce, which is why the price difference between F12 and MS63 is not that dramatic. For a list of all die varieties, see Flynn’s book, The Authoritative Reference on Three Cent Silver Coins.
