US Two Cents

In 1836, the two-cent denomination was first introduced. At the time, numerous patterns and design types were made. However, it was only in the 1860s when these coins were produced in huge quantity for circulation.

James Pallock, director of the U.S Mint, reinforced the coinage of the two-cent piece in 1863. Since the circulation of cents at the time was scarce and silver coins did not circulate, a bronze two-cent piece appeared to be very useful.

The pattern that was adopted was a design made by James Longacre, featuring an obverse with the statement “IN GOD WE TRUST” on a ribbon, and a heraldic shield. The design of the reverse is a wreath of wheat.
