Description
1869 Two Cent, Blazing MS66 Red
Tied for Finest Certified
1869 2C MS66 Red PCGS. Even though the U.S. Mint struck more
than 1.5 million two cent pieces in the sixth year of the series'
run, this survivor is notably finer than most. Stunning fire-red
surfaces blaze with luster on both sides of this nicely preserved
Premium Gem Red two cent, tied for finest with two other such at
PCGS and two at NGC (11/15). The surface preservation is virtually
impeccable. A few minuscule flecks of medium brown toning are
scarcely worth a mention. A nice PCGS TrueView photo accompanies
this lot. A spectacular piece for a top-notch Registry Set or year
set. The last example in this PCGS grade that we offered, lot 3649
in our FUN Signature (Heritage, 1/2014), was pedigreed to the
Wineguy Collection and brought $15,275.(Registry values: N2998)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 5NAM, PCGS# 3605, Greysheet# 2697)
