The 1867 Doubled Die Obverse is the most important doubled die variety in the Two Cent Series with doubling being most obvious in the IN GOD WE TRUST motto. Most of the low survival estimate of this variety can be found in circulated condition. Scarce in all grades but rare in Mint State. Any gems are certainly considered a rarity.
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.
