Description
1873 Two Cent, PR65 Red and Brown
Later Open 3 Variant
1873 2C Open 3 PR65 Red and Brown PCGS. CAC. It is believed
that the Open 3 two cent proofs of 1873 are in actuality restrikes
coined a few years later to supply collector demand for this
final-year issue, as the date logotype is that which was used
during that time period. The generally accepted mintage estimate is
just 500 coins for this variety, and survivors become scarce in the
finer grades. This Gem example displays fully struck motifs and
moderately reflective fields. Largely orange-brown overall, though
vivid cherry-red overtones appear when the fields catch a glint of
light. Housed in a green label holder.(Registry values: N2998)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 2754, PCGS# 3655, GSID# 2761)
