About This Coin
The 1870 Two Cent Patterns page groups the two-cent pieces dated 1870 in the Standard Silver Patterns (1870) series, struck at the Philadelphia Mint: the regular dies in copper, aluminum and nickel (J-790 to J-792) and on a planchet of silver and copper rolled together (J-793), and J-793a, a fantasy that pairs the two-cent reverse with a Standard Silver quarter reverse.
