Description
1867 Two Cent Piece, MS65+ Red
Popular Doubled Die Guide Book Variety
1867 2C Doubled Die Obverse, FS-101, MS65+ Red PCGS. The
present coin shows strong doubling on the obverse devices, most
noticeably on the motto IN GOD WE TRUST. This variety is classified
as FS-101 in the popular Cherrypickers Guide, which reports,
"This is by far the strongest doubled die in the two cent series."
The design elements of this Plus-graded Gem are sharply detailed
and the doubling is dramatic. The well-preserved original red
surfaces are virtually flawless, with vibrant mint luster
throughout. Eye appeal is outstanding. From a mintage of more than
2.9 million pieces, the 1867 two cent piece is still rare in MS65
condition, and this piece is the finest Doubled Die specimen PCGS
has graded with the Red designation (7/23).Coin Index Numbers: (Variety PCGS# 38273, Base PCGS# 3596, Greysheet# 351923)
Weight: 6.22 grams
Metal: 95% Copper, 5% Tin & zinc
