Lot Description

R-6- (21-30 minted). Small eagle perched on a cloud, similar to the small eagle device on silver coins 1794-1798; reverse with TWO CENTS in wreath. Struck in copper with a plain edge. Lovely milk chocolate color graces both sides with burnt sienna and brick red accents seen at certain angles. Sharply struck on both sides, the eye appeal is quite nice! Housed in an OGH. PCGS 3, NGC 0. The last one to sell realized $15,275 in August 2014. While PCGS has graded three finer, all PR65, none have sold in auction. Less frequently seen than J-52, and worthy of inclusion in a world class collection of patterns or advanced set of 2 cent pieces. Cert. Number 1304431 PCGS # 11199
