Hey guys! When putting together a collection, I target one or two hard coins at a time. I was trying to finish my 2 center collection and had been viewing all of the 2 cent pieces on Proxibid. I was focusing on those lots without any specific text the description in hopes of finding an 1872 in the lot. This was part of a lot that was so-so photographed and the last picture in the bunch. Out of habit, when I saw 1864, I looked for the leaves...no one else picked up on it!

I must thank Condor for his tip many moons ago about the leaves. This is my best experience there - I have gotten skunked in the past so anyone who buys from there needs to remember EWO (Eyes Wide Open)!

Oh, and we are talking about at least a year of reviewing lots - it does not happen often :)

Great story of patience to find this one CoinsKelly ... I placed my guess knowing this was a small motto 1864 and was amazed at your great acquisition at such a low price.

Thanks for sharing the background behind the coin purchase.
