Two cent Piece/Shield Nickel: are these 2 different designs or same design seperated only by denomin
as some of you know, I'm building a basic design type set using PCGS' registry category as a base.my pcgs basic design type set
I'm eliminating all the multiple designs and only using 1-Barber, 1-capped bust, 1-seated etc as I consider this a duplication of design. I consider the trade dollar different from the seated design though! they both might be sitting but they are quite different. But what about the 2 and 5 cent shields?? the 2 has arrow, a banner for the legend, and doesn't have the 5's cross. different designs or same design keeping my minimalist design type set in mind?

Treasury Seals Type Set
would be a killer set to have a proof two center and a shield nick both neatly colored side by side
of the same date would be even better
both would be great value opportunity coins and many could look at them and discuss their similar really similar yet different obverses
and i wonder how many would reconize what their demoninations are and what country they are from??
