Two Cent Pieces
1866 2C MS66+ Red PCGS. This magnificent 1866 two cent is one of the finest examples extant from an original mintage of 3.1 million coins. In fact, this is the sole Plus-designated Premium Gem at PCGS with none finer. The obverse features light pumpkin-gold coloration with razor-sharp detail on the olive leaves and shield. A touch of softness occurs on the reverse wreath. Blushes of amber and pale violet complement rose-gold color on that side. Expect spirited competition from serious Registry Set enthusiasts when this piece crosses the block. Population: 13 in 66 (1 in 66+) Red, 0 finer (5/17).
