Finest-Graded 1858 Flying Eagle Cent Pattern, Judd-193, Pollock-236, PR66

1858 P1C Flying Eagle Cent, Judd-193, Pollock-236, R.5, PR66 NGC. The obverse is identical to the regular issue 1858 Small Letters cent. The reverse, while similar to that adopted for the Indian cent in 1860, displays a broad, ornamented shield at the top. Struck in copper-nickel with a plain edge. This specimen is exquisitely struck and displays lovely, essentially uniform golden-brown toning across both sides. A faint woodgrain texture is noted on the reverse, but is certainly not unattractive. There are no contact marks or bothersome hairlines on either side of this lovely, conditionally scarce Premium Gem; the single finest-graded example at either of the major grading companies. Census: 1 in 66, 0 finer (6/08).

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 29BD, PCGS# 11844, GSID# 12286)
