Description

Splendid 1857 Flying Eagle Cent, MS65

1857 1C MS65 NGC. A delightful mix of hazel and lighter tan patina covers both sides of this carefully preserved piece. The strike is razor-sharp, and there are only a couple of nearly microscopic marks. A few minuscule carbon spots define the grade. The 1857 is virtually impossible to locate above Gem. NGC reports only 11 examples in MS66, with none finer (7/09).
