Description
Famous 1856 Flying Eagle Cent
Snow-9, PR62
1856 1C PR62 PCGS. Eagle Eye Photo Seal, Card Included.
Snow-9, the usually seen proof dies, identified by the nearly
imperceptible vertical die crack beneath the beak and a tiny die
scratch (as made) on the left ribbon end. The opening of the O in
OF is nearly square-shaped, as always on 1856 Flying Eagle cents,
but unlike the vast majority of circulation strikes for the series.
This needle-sharp and essentially mark-free specimen has even
golden-tan toning aside from minor spots on the T in CENT and on
the reverse rim at 3 o'clock. Careful rotation beneath a loupe
locates a few faint hairlines on the obverse exergue, and these are
all that deny a much finer grade.(Registry values: N4719)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 227A, PCGS# 2037, Greysheet# 15311)
