The only two we have. Interesting coins... I didn't know such denominations existed until I saw these a few months ago.

Both have interesting clashes, particularly the 1866, which also has some nice die cracks on the reverse. You can see Liberty's entire profile clashed on the 1866 rev, plus much of the back of her head (such a deep clash too!). Looks like the 1866 reverse die was overpolished because the left ribbon curl is disconnected.

I think the 1865 is ~F15 and the 1866 ~F12, maybe F15. What do you think?

i think your underestimating the '65...looks VF to me

the '66 would be an F level coin with a bit of corrosion on the obverse

I would put the 1965 at VF25 problem free and very nice.

1866 at Fine, some corrosion, great coin for a started set.
