1864 Small Motto MS-60 details/recolored.
Marshmallow Collection. There is no denying exceptionally sharp, pinpoint details throughout, almost as if this had been struck as a proof. The sharpness is just that precise! However, die-cracks...
515The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/26/2013$1,600.00
1864 Small Motto. NGC MS-64 BN.
Perfectly natural, brown patina yields suddenly to a jagged mint-red area at lower right on the obverse, and the entire coin displays tiny crumbles of greenish verdigris that attest to a very high...
302The Midwest Summer Sale 2012 on 07/27/2012$2,800.00
1864 Small Motto. NGC MS-65 BN.
A trivial dash of coppery mint-gold color touches the obverse bottom right rim, and elevates the lustrous effect on the reverse right side. Intriguing neon-blue toning dominates both sides, however,...
253The Collectors' Auction 2011 on 10/21/2011$2,700.00
1864 Small Motto. NGC MS-65 BN.
Deep magenta-brown hue fully dominates the entire obverse, relieved above the date by a swath of cobalt-jade. The reverse beams with bright magenta-rose tones and bears signs of cobalt iridescence. ...
279The Collectors' Auction 2010 on 10/15/2010$340.00
1864 Small Motto. F.
WE need not be present on ribbon for the "small motto" to be easily attributed, since the rest of the lettering makes attribution a snap. Half the horizontal shield lines remain strong, and the...
274The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008$550.00
1864 Small Motto. ANACS XF-40.
Fully original surfaces are richly tinted with walnut brown patina and are amazingly free of any defects or blemishes. The small motto on the ribbon is exceedingly sharp and easily readable, an...
277The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008$2,400.00
1864 Small Motto. PCGS MS-64 RB.
The "red/brown" designation accurately conveys the degree to which the original patina is comprised of about equal part mint red and mellow brown color. This is a purely original coin that suffers...
278The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008$25,000.00
1864 Small Motto. PCGS PF-64 BN.

302The Collectors' Auction 2007 on 10/19/2007$450.00
1864 Small Motto. AU-50 Details, Dipped.
Struck a bit off center to the northeast on the obverse, though the reverse is perfectly centered. There is no way to determine for sure why this coin was dipped to a somewhat unnatural salmon color,...
304The Collectors' Auction 2007 on 10/19/2007$180.00
1864 Large Motto. MS-64 RB.
Though considered by some to be a pattern, almost anyone wishing to put together a complete collection of two-cent coins in any grade plans to obtain a Largel Motto 1864. Very boldly impressed,...

1864 Small Motto. NGC AU-53 BN.
Smooth mahogany brown surfaces with nearly full detail remaining. Excellent the way it is, but a copper expert may look to conserve this coin as some original dirt can be seen around the devices. ...

1864 Small Motto. F-15.
