1865 U.S. Civil War Era Two-Cent Piece Coin

Description

***Similar to coin depicted. Grading Good or better. Introduced in 1864, as Generals Grant and Lee traded important Civil War victories, these bronze 2¢ pieces helped make change during a severe wartime coin shortage. Mintages of 2¢ pieces, struck only at Philadelphia, quickly declined beginning in 1866 and were issued for circulation for the last time in 1872. {"@context":"https://schema.org/","@type":"Product","name":"1865 U.S. Civil War Era Two-Cent Piece Coin","image":"https://cdn.shopify.co
