Owner Comments:


1863 2C
J-305, Pollock-370
Rarity: R4, PR60 CAC Endorsed
Ex: :DENALI Collection

Struck in Copper with Reeded Edge

These 2C patterns carried God and Our Country motto and the head of George Washington was the first formal striking of a federal issue coin with a president head. It was not until 1932 that George Washington bust made formally in production on a US .Coin.

Comment:
While this coin is only graded PR60, this is a marvelous looking strike with great eye appeal with an overall glow with hints of Olive green hues..
