Pleasing 1856 Flying Eagle Cent, PR58

1856 1C PR58 PCGS. Snow-9. The die combination, as identified by Richard Snow, is a proof-only variety. The obverse has a short die line from the right top of I in UNITED to the border, and the reverse has a bold center dot below the upper left serif of N in CENT.
This impaired proof has slight highpoint wear on each side. The surfaces are light tan with hints of darker rose toning, joined by whispers of blue-green on the obverse. Both sides, especially the reverse, exhibit fine hairlines. Still a pleasing 1856 Flying Eagle cent with strong design elements.(Registry values: N4719)
