Mauritius 2 cents Rupublic Coinage Queen Elizabeth PR66 PCGS bronze coin 1971

This 1971 Mauritius 2 Cents bronze Proof coin represents the island nation’s early post-independence coinage and features Queen Elizabeth II. The obverse presents a right-facing crowned portrait of the young Queen, with carefully modeled hair, crown, neckline and surrounding legend identifying Elizabeth II. The reverse has a clean denomination-centered design: a large numeral 2 enclosed by a fine beaded circle, surrounded by MAURITIUS, TWO CENTS and the date 1971. Additional beaded borders frame both sides, while the warm bronze surfaces provide an attractive contrast with the sharply defined devices. Mauritius gained independence in 1968 while retaining Queen Elizabeth II as head of state, making this issue part of an important transitional period in the country’s monetary history. Struck in bronze with a Proof finish and certified PCGS PR66 RD CAM, this high-grade red cameo example combines royal portraiture, Commonwealth history and classic Mauritius numismatics.
