Description

1863 Two Cent Piece, PR64 Red and Brown
Judd-312A, Pollock-377, Copper

1863 2C Two Cents, Judd-312A, Pollock-377, R.4, PR64 Red and Brown NGC. Similar to the adopted two cent piece of the following year except that the motto reads GOD OUR TRUST on the obverse, and the word CENTS is sharply curved within the wreath on the reverse. Struck in copper with a plain edge. The A designation indicates this piece was struck in copper, rather than the more common bronze alloy of the normal Judd-312. The weight of this planchet is unknown. The fields show a profound depth of reflectivity and much of the original red is slightly and evenly mellowed over each side.
Ex: ANA Signature (Heritage, 8/2007), lot 2696.
