      Obverse Description: An ornate shield flanked on the left and right by leaves with arrow heads and shanks (crossed behind) appear protruding at the four corners. A ribbon above the shield bears the words IN GOD WE TRUST, making this coin design the first usage this now-ubiquitous motto. The date is positioned at the bottom center.
      Reverse Description: A large numeral 2 with the word CENTS below (smaller) in the center is framed by a well-defined wheat wreath tied at the bottom center by a simple ribbon. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA appears around the periphery.
      General Notes: In 1869, the Mint, once again, produced 600 Proof Two Cent Pieces. Most of this mintage is still in existence. Examples at PR66 and finer are scarce with brown and red-brown color. Full red pieces are rare as of PR65. Any cameo surfaces are great rarities in any grade. Be on the lookout for pieces with notable toning or vivid red color.
