Description
1873 Two Cent, Closed 3, PR65 Brown
Amazing Cobalt-Blue Iridescence
1873 2C Closed 3 PR65 Brown PCGS. A proper light source is
all that is needed to turn this eye-appealing Gem two cent proof
from glossy brown to amazing iridescent cobalt-blue. Ticks on the
fourth shield gule and under the 2 identify the coin. At least 600
specimens were struck with a Closed 3 early on in 1873. Breen notes
that some likely went unsold and were melted after April 1 of that
year, when legislation abolishing the denomination and slightly
increasing the weights of silver coins was passed. Population: 19
in 65 Brown, 10 finer (6/17).(Registry values: N1793)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 2753, PCGS# 3651, Greysheet# 2757)
