Description

1864 Two Cent Piece, PR65 Red and Brown
First-Year Proof Issue

1864 2C Large Motto PR65 Red and Brown PCGS. The two cent piece made its debut in 1864 and proof mintages were quite modest. Only a handful of Small Motto proofs are known and about 100 proofs of the Large Motto design were struck, including the present coin. The original red surfaces of this attractive Gem have mellowed to olive-brown in some areas, with well-preserved reflective fields underneath. The design elements exhibit razor-sharp definition throughout and the overall presentation is most attractive. Population: 39 in 65 Red and Brown, 13 finer (9/16).
