1871 Two Cent, MS66 Red and Brown
Tied Finest at PCGS, CAC Endorsed

1871 2C MS66 Red and Brown PCGS. CAC. A speckling of brownish-blue toning intensifies in areas to account for the Red and Brown designation, although there is plenty of lustrous mint-orange color that illuminates the Premium Gem surfaces. Doubling is visible on the motto, especially at N of IN and W of WE. Overall preservation is impeccable. This example is tied for finest at PCGS, while CAC endorsement adds to the coin's résumé. Population: 9 in 66 Red and Brown, 0 finer. CAC: 6 in 66, 0 finer (11/22).
