Lewis Feuchtwanger, a German-born Chemist moved to the United States in 1829, settling in New York City. He produced a variety of German Silver (an alloy of metals featuring no silver) consisting of nickel, copper, and some zinc. Feuchtwanger suggested to Congress in 1837 that his metal should be substituted for copper in US Coinage. He made one cent and three cent pieces which circulated freely during the coin shortage of 1836-1844. Population Estimate of only 200 Three Cent Pieces were ever coined.
