We will answer all questions and provide additional photos upon request. All dates are clearly visible without the use of a magnifying lens. In God We Trust is at least partially visible on the 1864 & 1868 coins. The act of April 22, 1864, which changed the weight and composition of the cent, included a provision for a bronze two-cent piece. The weight was specified as 96 grains, the alloy being the same as for the cent. The two-cent piece is one of the shortest lived issues of the United States coinage. The motto IN GOD WE TRUST appeared for the first time on a new coin, due largely to increased religious sentiment during the Civil War crisis.
