Description
Enchanting 1866 Two Cent, PR66 Red
1866 2C PR66 Red NGC. Only 725 or so proofs were struck of this issue, and clearly very few of the surviving examples are of the quality presented here. In fact, only five pieces have received the PR66 Red designation from NGC and PCGS, and none are finer (3/09). This is an enchanting coin that retains the original full, bright, orange-red color the coin had in 1866 with just a hint of olive intermixed. The design elements are razor sharp. Virtually perfect surfaces, the only flaw we see is a small planchet flake out of the left obverse field near the rim at the 9 o'clock position. Census: 3 in 66 Red, 0 finer (3/09).(Registry values: N2998)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 274V, PCGS# 3632, GSID# 2724)
