Description

1866 Two Cent, MS64 Brown
on a Bronze Cent Planchet

1866 2C Two Cent Piece -- Struck on a Cent Planchet -- MS64 Brown NGC. 3.1 grams, similar to the expected 3.11 gram weight of a bronze Indian cent. Struck aligned with the collar die, or nearly so, at 2:30. Only about half of the date is present, but a majority of the final 6 is here and confirms the date. Virtually all of the shield and wreath are present, but most of UNITED STATES is off the flan. Wrong planchet errors are rarely encountered on obsolete denominations, particularly in quality Mint State. Unabraded, though a few flecks of powder-blue and lilac show here and there across the golden-tan surfaces.
