Lot Description

1866 Two-Cent Piece. Proof-65 RD (PCGS). OGH. This beautiful Gem exhibits blushes of pinkish-apricot iridescence to otherwise rose-orange surfaces. Both sides are fully struck with lively semi-reflective tendencies evident in the fields as the coin dips into a light. Superior technical quality and eye appeal from an unknown mintage that is probably on the order of 800 to 1,200 Proofs. An excellent high grade type candidate from the brief two-cent series of 1864 to 1873. PCGS Population: 32; 6 finer in this category (all Proof-66 RD). PCGS# 3632. NGC ID: 274V.
