1872 Two-Cent Piece. Proof-65 RD (NGC).This lovely Gem Proof has peach and golden-bronze surfaces and just a dusting of dark teal in select areas. The fields are lightly reflective, framing sharply pronounced and untouched design elements. The year 1872 represents the last in which the Mint produced circulation strikes of this denomination. With only 65,000 pieces produced, the 1872 is a key date two-cent issue in that format. At the assigned grade level the present example is a noteworthy prize for the two-cent specialist.From the Rosie Collection.
