1863 Pattern Two-Cent Piece. Judd-312, Pollock-377. Rarity-4. Bronze. Plain Edge. Proof-62 BN (NGC).，<strong>Obv:</strong> Similar to the design that the Mint adopted for regular issue two-cent coinage in 1864, although the motto on the scroll reads GOD OUR TRUST instead of IN GOD WE TRUST. <strong>Rev:</strong> Also similar to the adopted type of the following year, but the word CENTS is markedly curved and the detail to the wreath is slightly different. A second example of this popular pattern type, both sides are smartly impressed with direct viewing angles calling forth pale pink undertones as well as modest semi-reflective tendencies in the fields. Otherwise warmly patinated in rose-brown with a generally smooth appearance in hand.，From the Marc Kravit Collection.，
