Assuming the coin is circulated, the 1852 Three-Cent Silver piece is not rare or scarce. It's the highest mintage most common date of the entire series. For an accurate assessment of value the coin needs to be seen and graded. In general retail values for typical circulated grade (G-4 to EF-40) coins are $20.00 to $70.00. Values are a market average and only for coins in collectible condition, coins that are bent, corroded, scratched, used as jewelery or have been cleaned have far less value if any to a collector or dealer.
Please clarify if this a 3 cent piece or a $3 piece.

All 3 cent pieces issued by the US Mint had dates. If yours is worn so the date is not on it anymore then you will have to be know whether it is a silver 3 cent or a nickel 3 cent. The nickel 3 cent is about the size of a dime and the silver 3 cent is smaller than a dime. Without a date the value of these coins would be about $1-$2 for the silver 3 cent and about 25-50 cents for the nickel 3 cent.
It's a common date, worth 3 cents.

3¢ U.S. FWIW, the coin is just a 2-cent piece. A penny is worth 1¢ so a "2-cent 1-cent" coin would be pretty odd.
It depends on the date, condition and the type. There were two main styles of three cent pieces, there was the 3 cent silver which was tiny and the 3 cent nickel which was large (the 3 cent silver had a star on the obverse, the 3 cent nickel had a head of Liberty on the obverse). Without knowing the date or at least the type, it is impossible to answer your question.
