    It is really hard to find a proof 2-cent piece that actually looks like a proof. Most are dull and brown. It is interesting that Indian cents from the same period are easier to find as attractive proofs (my opinion, anyway).

    I have never bought a proof 2-cent piece because I've never been offered one that I liked.

    Gee Chris, I hurt myself on that one as I tried to do a double back flip upon seeing it. At my age that is dangerous.
    I may be in traction for a while. A very beautiful coin. Thanks for posting the picture.

    That is Definitely a Beautiful coin! I don't know if I'd call it sexy though. Some inanimate things, like some cars, can be sexy... but coins???

    I had the pleasure in viewing these coins in person. Amazing set. My favorite is the top rarity - the 1864 Small Motto Proof in PCGS PR-65 RD Cameo (CAC). Stunning coin.
