1865 2C Plain 5, RD MS (PCGS#38249)

The Regency Auction 55

详细说明: One of the FINEST KNOWN 1865 two cent pieces, and is this a simply stunning specimen! This is the SINGLE FINEST graded with the Plain 5 logotype in the date. The Plain 5 type seems to be scarcer overall, but in this lofty state of preservation, ALL 1865 two cent pieces are EXTREMELY RARE. WOW! This SUPERB GEM is dripping with glowing, fiery red luster. Bold, swirling cartwheels sweep all over with a stunning mint brilliance. One or two tiny flecks can be found with a powerful glass, but they are virtually invisible to the unaided eye. Crisply defined devices stand out with full details. The eye appeal is truly AMAZING! PCGS 1, NGC 0. This coin has not sold in auction, but there is a PCGS Price Guide value of $23,000 (odd because the unattributed 1865 PCGS Price Guide value is $27,500). Back in 2005, an unattributed PCGS MS67 RD Fancy 5 sold for $20,125. Obviously NONE are finer in the designation for any variety, and we think the PCGS Price Guide values are too low. Bound for the #1 Set or an amazing Civil War era type set. Good luck. Cert. Number 38669653 PCGS # 38249
