Description
1857 Flying Eagle Cent, MS65
Boldly Struck Type Coin
1857 1C MS65 PCGS. In response to the rising cost of copper,
the Act of February 21, 1857, called for the coinage of the new
copper-nickel small cent. The resulting small cent required less
than half the amount of copper used to mint the Large cent,
producing drastic savings for the U.S. Treasury. This Gem
Uncirculated cent features fully struck design elements that are
unusually bold on the eagle's tailfeathers and the reverse wreath.
The vibrant mint luster enhances minimally abraded copper-gold
surfaces.(Registry values: N2998)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 2276, PCGS# 2016, GSID# 15313)
