from the Mountain Groan Collection
Many countries, including the United States, Mexico and France, have experimented with a two cent coin but have generally found it unwanted. Peru seems to be an exception as this denomination was issued starting in 1863 and continuing steadily until the final date in 1958. This type was issued 1917-20 and 1933-49, to be superseded by a zinc coin (KM 228). This date is common. There are many date position varieties and many years are known with overdates.
Recorded mintage: 963,000.
Specification: copper or bronze.
Catalog reference: KM 212.1.
