1866 Two Cent Piece, PR65 Red
Glittering, Orange-Red Surfaces

1866 2C PR65 Red PCGS. It is an exceptional tale of preservation that a large-size copper coin such as this two cent piece could retain its original mint color for 144 years. The fields are deeply mirrored and each side shows bright orange-red and subtle streaks of cherry-red color. The only mentionable defect is a mark on the horizontal shield lines. Population: 31 in 65 Red, 2 finer (7/10).
