Description
Prized Select 1856 Flying Eagle Cent
1856 1C MS63 PCGS. CAC. Snow-9. PCGS does not recognize proofs of the 1856 Flying Eagle cent, though NGC and others have been convinced by various arguments. Early small cent guru Rick Snow has presented evidence both for and against, such as an exacting strike counterbalanced by poor mirrors or planchet flaws. This Select specimen exemplifies many of the contradictions of the issue. While the bold definition is consistent with a proof striking, reflectivity on the streaky autumn-brown surfaces is almost non-existent and several planchet cracks are noted on each side. Population: 40 in 63, 49 finer (11/09).From The Five Point Collection.(Registry values: N4719)
