Enticing Gem Red and Brown Proof
1864 Large Motto Two Cent

1864 2C Large Motto Two Cent Piece PR65 Red and Brown PCGS. The Large Motto proof two cents can be distinguished from the rarer Small Motto coins by the D in GOD, which is tall and canted to the right on the Large Motto pieces, and the first T in TRUST is farther away from the ribbon crease. This enticing Gem proof displays deep sunset-orange color near the rims, lightening to gold at the middle obverse. A wonderful specimen, sharply struck throughout and free of mentionable distractions. Population: 28 in 65 Red and Brown, 5 finer (8/10).
