Price history for items of the same classification:
Lot #AuctionCurrent Bid or Hammer PriceDescription
516The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/26/2013$525.00
1864 Large Motto NGC MS-64 RB, and an 1869 NGC MS-63 RB.
French Connection Estate. The upper and lower reaches of the "RB" designation are tested by this pair, as the 1864 shows gleaming copper-bright luster that seems right on the cusp of "red", while the...
310The Collectors' Auction 2012 on 10/05/2012$450.00
1864 Large Motto. NGC MS-65.
Shattered reverse. Knockout eye-appeal starts out with exceptional, lively luster and develops even further with strong mint color that almost appears fully RED at first glance. Precisely struck...
166The Collectors' Auction 2009 on 10/16/2009$875.00
1864 Large Motto. NGC MS-65 RD.
Well over 95% of the original mint-orange color remains prevalent, subdued by pumpkin-brown tone only in limited areas. Luster is nearly dazzling, and there is no doubt that this coin is thoroughly...
510The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/24/2009$340.00
1864 Large Motto. MS-65RB.
Extensive luster demonstrates the technical mint state preservation, and both sides are free of the brown patina expected of a coin of this age. And in addition, the strike is excellent for the...
271The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008$500.00
1864 Large Motto and 1866 Two-Cent Pieces, NGC.
A nice pair of two cent coins, graded by NGC. The 1864 is a "large motto" type graded MS-65 RB, though this coin actually retains about 80% of its original red color, and benefits from semi-prooflike...
272The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008$825.00
1864 Large Motto and 1866 (x2) Two cents. PCGS.
Although each member of this trio is a common issue, all of these two cent coins possess good eye appeal. Included are: 1864 "large motto" (MS-64 RB), 1866 (MS-64 RB), and 1866 (PR-63 RB). The obverse...
273The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008$400.00
Trio of Two Cents, each MS-60, recolored.
This lot commences with a nicely struck 1864 "large motto" that displays excellent luster, but the color is peculiarly ruddy and cannot be considered original. A rather lackluster 1865 has even bolder...
275The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008$1,100.00
1864 Large Motto and 1866, PCGS PF-64 BN.
Especially given the PCGS color designation of "BN" for each coin, a very considerable portion of the original mint red color lingers over each member of this two cent duo, consisting of an 1864 and...
279The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008$1,150.00
1864 Large Motto. PCGS MS-65 RD.
The reverse is a full shade lighter than the obverse, yet both sides volunteer enough original mint red color to qualify for the coveted "red" designation from PCGS. This is an exquisitely struck and...
303The Collectors' Auction 2007 on 10/19/2007$150.00
1864 Large Motto MS-62 BN and 1865 AU-58.
The 1864 large-motto has a nice die clash and alludes to original mint color with a crescent of copper red on each side. The 1865 has virtually uncirculated details, but the color seems overly orange...
235The Collector's Auction on 10/20/2006$575.00
1864 Large Motto. NGC MS-64 RD.
A gleaming golden aspect radiates from this example's highly lustrous surfaces. This vibrant specimen has an impressive strike and shows a moderate splash of flecks.
283The Midwest Summer Sale 2006 on 07/21/2006$200.00
1864 Large Motto. NGC MS-64 RB.
The intense reddish orange surfaces are somewhat muted by splashes of mauve tints that are reminiscent of western sunsets. There are no obtrusive marks or blemished to note on a strike with prominent...
405The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/17/2006$0.00
1864 Large Motto. NGC MS-65 RB.
Incandescent tones of magenta, violet, and blue adorn the obverse and reverse of this lovely specimen. It is more Red than Brown.
