Description

Lustrous 1857 Flying Eagle Cent, MS65

1857 1C MS65 NGC. A dusky tan-gold type coin that does not require a third party holder to proclaim its status as a Gem. The strike is needle-sharp aside from the tips of the tail feathers, and only trivial contact is detected, even when examined beneath a loupe. Lustrous with impressive eye appeal. Census: 14 in 65, 2 finer (2/09).
Ex: Heritage (6/2006), lot 193.
From The Joseph C. Thomas Collection.(Registry values: N2998)
