Description
Charming 1856 Flying Eagle Cent, Net Fine 12
1856 1C --Damaged--ANACS. VF Details, Net Fine 12. Snow-9. The Mint's introduction of small cents in 1856 caused the hobby of coin collecting to take off in the United States as many people searched not only for the earlier large cents, but also for the scarce 1856 Flying Eagle cents. Richard Snow (2009) estimates that these first small cents had a mintage of only 800 pieces. Lovely mahogany brown patina covers both sides of this clearly detailed piece. A small gouge to the left of the date is the only mentionable mark.(Registry values: N4719)Coin Index Numbers: (PCGS# 2013, GSID# 15310)
