1873 Closed 3 Two Cent, PR65 Red and Brown

1873 2C Closed 3 PR65 Red and Brown PCGS. CAC. The last year of the two cent denomination, the Closed 3 coins were a proof-only issue, and it is generally believed, following the lead of Walter Breen, that the Open 3 coins were later restrikes. This Closed 3 example offers much contrast between orange-red fields and brownish devices, with lots of eye appeal. Population: 79 in 65 Red and Brown, 16 finer (3/09).(Registry values: N1793)
