1871 Two Cent Piece, PR67 Red
Tied for Finest Red Coin at PCGS

1871 2C PR67 Red PCGS. FS-102. WE TRUST is die doubled, as always on proofs of this date. Full Red examples of the 1871 proof two cent pieces are scarce but occasionally seen in grades from PR64 to PR66. However, Registry collectors or other advanced specialists may wish to seek a Superb Gem Red example, and here collectors will encounter a challenge. PCGS lists only two coins in PR67 Red, and NGC has seen just two additional pieces in the same grade (3/23). We are excited to be able to offer one of the PCGS coins here. Deep, watery fields complement sharp, satiny design elements and rich fire-orange and copper-red hues. A loupe and close examination can locate the occasional tiny speck, but this piece is largely problem free and visually outstanding. An essential acquisition. Population: 2 in 67 Red, 0 finer (3/23).
