Appealing 1866 Gem Red Proof Two Cent

1866 2C PR65 Red PCGS. Breathtaking field-motif contrast is evident on this Gem proof as the coin is rotated ever so lightly beneath a light source. Both sides exhibit beautiful yellow-gold color, imbued with whispers of orange, violet, and pale crimson. A powerful strike lends exquisite delineation to the design elements, further enhancing their variance with the mirrored fields. A few tiny, light flecks do not disturb. Outstanding overall eye appeal! Population: 32 in 65 Red, 2 finer (4/08).(Registry values: N1793)
