Yet, despite its failure as a<br \/>\nmedium of exchange, the two-cent piece made a singular and enduring<br \/>\ncontribution to the nation&rsquo;s coinage history, for this was the coin that<br \/>\n introduced the motto IN GOD WE TRUST. The motto and the coin itself<br \/>\nwere both direct results of the Civil War.&#8217;<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div align=\"center\"><\/div>\n<div align=\"center\"><b><font size=\"6\" face=\"Courier\"><br \/><\/font><\/b><\/div>\n<div align=\"center\"><font size=\"7\"><b><font face=\"Courier\">FREE DOMESTIC SHIPPING<\/font><\/b><\/font><\/div>\n<div align=\"center\"><\/div>\n<div align=\"center\">\n<div align=\"center\"><b><font size=\"6\">Thank You For Your Business!<br \/><\/font><\/b><\/div>\n<div align=\"center\"><b><font size=\"6\"><br \/><\/font><\/b><\/div>\n<div align=\"center\"><b><br \/><\/b><\/div>\n<div align=\"center\"><i>*All<br \/>\n grading designations used are the opinion of the proprietor, based on<br \/>\nthe proprietor&#8217;s judgement and experience, and do not constitute a<br \/>\nwarranty or a guarantee that the coin being sold will be certified in<br \/>\nthe condition specified in the listing.*<br \/><\/i><\/div>\n<div align=\"center\"><i><font size=\"3\"><br \/><\/font><\/i><\/div>\n<p><i><font size=\"3\"><\/p>\n<p><\/font><\/i><\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr id=\"ctl00_ctl00_ctl00_ctl00_body_body_MainContent_MainContent_uxCoinStats_uxMintContentRow\">\n<td>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><i><font size=\"3\"><span style='font-size:13.5pt;line-height:107%;font-family:\n\"Arial\",sans-serif'>*All raw coins will be sent in protective cardboard 2&rdquo;x2&rdquo;<br \/>\nstapled flips at no extra cost.*<\/span><\/font><\/i><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><span class=\"subCatBodyText\"><span id=\"ctl00_ctl00_ctl00_ctl00_body_body_MainContent_MainContent_uxCategoryDescription_uxContent\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"subCatBodyText\"><span id=\"ctl00_ctl00_ctl00_ctl00_body_body_MainContent_MainContent_uxCategoryDescription_uxContent\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div align=\"center\">\n<\/div>\n<p><\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1868 Shield Two Cent Piece Fine (F) Condition The coin you are buying is 152 years-old!
