Etymology

From Latin trēs (three), likely by analogy with dime.

Noun

trime (plural trimes)

  1. A silver coin worth three cents, minted in the US from 1851 to 1873.
    • 2025 February 11, Jiachuan Wu and Ash Reynolds, “As Trump aims to ax the penny, these are the coins that cost more than they're worth”, in NBC News:
      If the penny is discontinued, it will join the ranks of other obsolete American coins, including the trime, a 3-cent coin discontinued in 1873, and the gold dollar coin, which was discontinued in 1889; that differed from the dollar coin currently in circulation.
