Description
Amazing 1864 Small Motto Two Cent, MS66 Red
1864 2C Small Motto MS66 Red NGC. FS-000.5, per the NGC holder. 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, and while the low-mintage 1872 business strike issue 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 decisively struck beauty is carefully preserved with considerable fire. Deep orange-gold and peach shadings in the centers cede to lighter copper-gold close to the margins. Spectacular eye appeal. Census: 5 in 66 Red, 0 finer (6/08).(Registry values: N2998)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 22N8, PCGS# 3581, GSID# 2679)
