VF-25 For Sale
$135.00
Nice coin. The "we" is clear on the reverse. Usually the 'we' is the first detail to disappear in circulation.
1864 Two Cent Piece
EF-45 For Sale
$90.00
The coin is in excellent condition with the 'WE' clearly showing on the obverse. Nice coin.
The Two Cent piece, minted from 1864 to 1873, holds the distinction of being the first U.S. coin to bear the motto 'In God We Trust.' This short-lived denomination was introduced during the Civil War when coin shortages plagued the economy. Made of bronze, it featured a shield design on the obverse. The denomination proved redundant once the economy stabilized and was discontinued after less than a decade, making these coins a fascinating piece of Civil War-era numismatic history.
