Description
Charming 1856 Flying Eagle Cent, PR50 Details
1856 1C --Cleaned--ANACS. PR50 Details. Snow-9. Technically speaking, 1856 Flying Eagle cents are patterns, and were widely distributed by the U.S. Mint to familiarize people with the new design. Approximately 2,000 pieces were minted, and today they are often seen with signs of poor handling. Cleaning has left this piece with a somewhat medium bronze and tan patina, but the details are excellent. The only evidence of circulation is seen on the high points of the eagle, as well as on the wreath. A pleasing example of this prized first-year issue.From The Jerry Kochel Collection.(Registry values: N4719)
