Not Sold Description
1873 Closed 3 Two Cent, Gem Red and Brown
Original Proof Issue, Reverse of 1872
1873 2C Closed 3 PR65 Red and Brown PCGS Secure. One of the
original proof issues, as the Open 3 coins are backdated pieces
issued later in the year. Lilac predominates, but generous amounts
of mint red outline all the devices on both sides. A single scrape
under the 2 in the center reverse is the only visible contact. The
proof Closed 3s were produced to the extent of only 600 pieces. The
die line running horizontally into the reverse field, from the leaf
left of the large 2, is diagnostic for this reverse--the same seen
on some 1872 proof two cents. Population: 80 in 65 Red and Brown,
17 finer (7/10).(Registry values: N1793)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 2753, PCGS# 3652, Greysheet# 2758)
Weight: 6.22 grams
Metal: 95% Copper, 5% Tin & zinc
