    Opinions of grade/value? Not too familiar with two cent pieces, although I really think I might start collecting these. I really enjoy the unique design. Perhaps the mint should bring back the two cent piece! I mean if the penny is becoming too costly vs face value, why not!

    Hard to tell the grade from such small pictures. Looks maybe be AU-50 or MS-60 but I can't really tell. Nice coin regardless.

    AU and then some on detail but not unc.

    Don't know how your color is on the coin but looks cleaned.

    Still a nice coin and I tend to like these.

    Looks AU from the details, color somewhat splotchy (at least in photos) implying a cleaning and/or recoloring. I agree that this is a very neat design-- but like the shield nickel, some people just don't like them.

    nice coin. I will have to agree with others, AU at best.

    Details-wise, it looks AU, but the color is not natural, indicating it has been cleaned.

    Thanks for the input gang. It's definitely circulated, and I hope if the coin has indeed been cleaned, that it doesn't eat away at the coin's surface/details. I still enjoy the coin's details enough though. Guess that's all that matters really.

    here is one that I think has natural color, at least NGC thinks so too:
