Description

Desirable 1856 Snow-9 Flying Eagle Cent, PR62

1856 1C PR62 NGC. Snow-9. Identified by a short die line that connects the right top of I in UNITED to the border. Far the most plentiful of all 1856 Flying Eagle die combinations, it is considered a proof-only variety. As expected, all of the design elements on both sides are fully detailed. The surfaces are light beige with hints of blue-green and pale yellow toning near the obverse and reverse borders. The surfaces are slightly granular, a typical appearance for these proofs that usually fail to display the typical mirrored surfaces of contemporary proof issues in other denominations.(Registry values: N4719)
