1865 Two-Cent Piece. Plain 5. MS-66+ RB (PCGS). CAC.
Tied for second highest graded at PCGS and finest verified by CAC, this is a glorious, original toned Gem with a superb look. Lustrous golden mint red belies a gentle dusting of iridescent brown. Sharply struck and fantastically preserved, you can tell this beauty has been lovingly cared for since it left the mint at the end of the Civil War.
PCGS# 3583. NGC ID: 22NA.
