Description

1872 Two Cent, MS64 Red and Brown
Final-Year Key Date

1872 2C MS64 Red and Brown NGC. The final issue of the short-live two cent series ended in 1872 with a small mintage of 65,000 pieces. Red and Brown examples are elusive and become conditionally rare in Premium Gem. This Choice Red and Brown example displays satiny mint luster beneath shades of plum, caramel and copper-orange. The reverse shows slight strike softness on the far right side, but the definition is otherwise excellent. Light abrasions limit the grade. NGC shows only 15 numerically finer Red and Brown pieces (10/25).(Registry values: N1793)
From The Brittany Legacy Collection, Part II.
