1873 Open 3 Two Cent Piece
PR65 Brown, Even Color

1873 2C Open 3 PR65 Brown PCGS. CAC. Restrike 1873 two cent pieces all have an open 3 in the date. But an even easier diagnostic that appears to be common to all Open 3s is flatness on the horizontal shield lines, apparently from some sort of die damage or clogging of the die. This example has even brown patina over both sides. Only a couple of spots are seen on obverse and reverse. Population: 7 in 65 Brown, 0 finer (5/11).(Registry values: N2998)
