Two-Cent Piece
1865 Two-Cent Piece. Plain 5. Proof-66 BN (PCGS).
A remarkable second high grade offering for the second year 1865, one of the scarcer and more conditionally challenged Proof two-cent issues. Iridescent undertones of orange-apricot and salmon-pink backlight dominant olive-copper patina, the obverse particularly vivid when viewed with the aid of direct lighting. Fully struck with a delightful semi-reflective finish from the dies, this upper end Gem will please even the most discerning numismatist.

PCGS Population: 5; with a single Proof-67 BN finer in this category.
