1856 Flying Eagle Cent, PR65
Snow-9, Sharp and Attractive

1856 1C Snow-9 PR65 PCGS. Snow-9 is the usual variety encountered when acquiring a proof 1856 Flying Eagle cent. Rick Snow notes that this variety frequently comes with squared rims and sharp detail, consistent with its traditional proof attribution, but without the mirrored fields that are associated with most proofs. This luminous Gem is indeed sharp but has satiny rather than mirrored fields. No objectionable marks are seen, and the original surfaces glow with lovely tan-gold and chestnut hues. Eye appeal is exceptional for the issue and variety. Population: 51 in 65 (3 in 65+), 5 finer (6/24).
