- 1864 Two-Cent Piece. FS-401. Small Motto. MS-64 RB (PCGS). CAC.
This beautiful near-Gem exhibits light glossy brown patina over surfaces that retain plenty of vivid rose-orange luster. The texture is smooth and satiny, and the devices are fully struck throughout. The first circulation strike two-cent coins delivered in 1864 were from a hub that features small letters in the motto IN GOD WE TRUST. This variety is best attributed by looking at the squat, rounded shape of the letter D in GOD, although another useful feature is the presence of a stem to the leaf cluster at the upper right. For the assigned grade it is difficult for us to imagine a more inviting example.
Provenance: From the Abernathy Collection. Earlier From our sale of the Alexander Collection, November 2017 Baltimore Auction, lot 1185.
PCGS# 3580. NGC ID: 22N8.
