1865 Two Cent Piece. NGC graded MS-63 BN. Displays pleasing brown colors with glossy luster throughout, and splashes of faded mint red in the fields. Second year of this brief design which, once the stress of wartime conditions abated, found little reason for existence where the need could be met by two Indian cents instead. An attractive design.
Estimated Value $75 - 100.

1867 Two Cents. NGC graded Proof 65 Red. Nice red colors. 625+ Proofs struck. Fiery-red color covers the fields of this handsome two-cent piece, in point of fact. In addition, the devices were struck with the requisite force and energy by the highly polished Proof dies to insure that all design elements show boldly. In a new 4 pronged NGC holder. Pop 8; 5 finer.
Estimated Value $2,300 - 2,400.
