Description

1864 Two Cent, MS66 Red
Small Motto, FS-401

1864 2C Small Motto, FS-401, MS66 Red NGC. This popular Guide Book variety, best distinguished by the short D in GOD, easily ranks as one of the most important entries in the two cent series. While the low-mintage 1872 business strike is more costly in most grades, at the Gem level and above, the two issues are nearly equals as the keys to the series.

This boldly struck Premium Gem is carefully preserved with considerable glowing Red surfaces. Deep orange-gold and peach shadings in the centers cede to lighter copper-gold color close to the margins. Spectacular eye appeal. Census: 7 in 66 Red, 0 finer (6/20).
Ex: ANA Signature (Heritage, 7-8/2008), lot 1562.
