1866 Two Cent, MS66 Red
Among the Finest Red Coins

1866 2C MS66 Red PCGS. CAC. Ex: Bender Collection. The 1866 two cent piece is abundant in the Brown and Red and Brown categories, but full Red pieces are scarce. This Premium Gem Red coin is among the finest certified. CAC-endorsed surfaces display satiny copper-red color and well-struck design elements. A couple tiny flecks serve as pedigree markers but are not obvious to the unaided eye. Population: 18 in 66 (4 in 66+) Red, 0 finer. CAC: 4 in 66, 0 finer (1/23).
