Description
AU Sharpness Snow-9 Proof
1856 Flying Eagle Cent
1856 1C --Improperly Cleaned--NCS. Proof, AU Details.
Snow-3. This die pairing is associated with original business
strikes, struck in 1856. Most 1856 Flying Eagle cents are Snow-9
proofs, made for collectors by the Mint in the later 1850s. Despite
our attribution, NCS has designated the present piece as a proof.
This is a lightly circulated specimen with moderate wear on the
eagle's breast and other highpoints. The golden-brown surfaces are
somewhat glossy from a long-ago wipe, and a few letters in STATES
display marks.From The Carter Family Collection.(Registry values: N4719)
