Description
Gem Red 1869 Two Cent Piece
Only Two Red Coins Certified Finer at PCGS
1869 2C MS65 Red PCGS. A dusky rose-gold and olive Gem with
a pinpoint-sharp strike and vibrant cartwheel shimmer. Contact
marks are fully absent, and only a couple of tiny toning flecks on
the reverse deny an even higher grade. Mintages of two cent pieces
dwindled after the Civil War, and full Red 1869 pieces are much
tougher to locate than their 1864 counterparts. Population: 25 in
65 Red, 2 finer (11/10).From The John H. Twist Collection.(Registry values: N1793)
Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 5NAM, PCGS# 3605, Greysheet# 2697)
Weight: 6.22 grams
