- 1864 Two-Cent Piece. FS-401. Small Motto. MS-65 BN (NGC).
Chocolate brown toning overall with blushes of blue, gold, and rose. Frosty luster underlies the patina. The strike is sharp in most areas including the horizontal and vertical line elements in the shield and the details of the wreath of grain encompassing the denomination on the reverse. Slight striking softness is noted at a few of the leaves in the inverted laurel wreath on the obverse. The 1864 Small Motto ranks as a scarce one-year design type, and has long been considered one of the most desirable varieties in the two-cent piece series.
Provenance: From the Birdwatcher Type Set, with a portion of the proceeds to benefit The Nature Conservancy.
PCGS# 3579. NGC ID: 96PH.
