1869 2C, RB MS (PCGS#3604)

Spring 2023 U.S. Coins Auction

Losbeschreibung: 1869 Two-Cent Piece. MS-65 RB (PCGS). CAC. A richly original beauty with a full endowment of billowy mint luster to both sides. Abundant deep orange mint color remains with an intermingling of light to medium rose-brown iridescence to explain the RB color designation from PCGS. Fully struck. While much scarcer than the 1864 and 1865, the 1869 (1,546,500 circulation strikes produced) is still a readily obtainable two-cent piece in grades through Choice Mint State. In Gem, however, this issue becomes a notable condition rarity. The present piece would do justice to any specialized cabinet. Provenance: From the Collection of James Allaire Millholland, 1842-1911.
