Description
1864 Large Motto Two Cent, MS67 Red
One of the Finest Two Cents Known
1864 2C Large Motto MS67 Red PCGS. This remarkable Superb
Gem is tied with one other for the finest 1864 Large Motto at PCGS,
but its importance transcends this one issue. In the entire two
cent series, PCGS has certified only four coins as MS67, including
this piece and its numerically equal Red counterpart, a single MS67
Brown representative of this same date, and an MS67 Red 1865 coin
(6/15). The strike is boldly executed with a thick, frosty finish
on the coppery-orange surfaces. There are no distracting abrasions
and carbon spotting is nonexistent, save for a single small speck
in the lower-right portion of the shield. A radiant cartwheel
effect is produced when the coin is rotated beneath a light.From The College Collection, Part Two.(Registry values: N4719)
