Struck at the Philadelphia Mint, the short-lived Two Cent series (1864–1873) remains a favorite among numismatists for its unique denomination and historic design. Designed by Chief Engraver James B. Longacre, this series holds a permanent place in US history as the very first coin to bear the motto \"In God We Trust.\"\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"2\"\u003eThe obverse features a highly detailed, ornate shield draped with olive branches and topped by a scroll containing the iconic national motto. The reverse displays a bold \"2 CENTS\" denomination centered within a classical wreath of wheat and wild grass. With the mintages of this denomination dropping sharply in the final years of the series, the 1868 issue is a scarcer, sought-after date that is essential for any complete US type set.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ClassyCoins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52646649233720,"sku":"236940017287","price":39.89,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0702\/1743\/3400\/files\/57_8e2e49b7-aa76-4b2c-a950-f6bfa351e9a3.jpg?v=1784163202","url":"https:\/\/classycoins.com\/products\/1868-two-cent-piece-circulated-great-set-filler-311","provider":"classycoins.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
