Well-Struck 1856 Flying Eagle Cent
PR63, Snow-9
1856 1C PR63 PCGS. Snow-9. Deep orange-red toning is
accompanied by lighter honey-gold shades on the present Select
specimen. A blush of olive-gray is noted beneath STATES, where it
conceals a tiny planchet flake of mint origin. This is a fully
struck example of the famous 1856 Flying Eagle cent, the first and
rarest date of the small cent denomination, which persists (albeit
in zinc alloy) to the present day. There is no indication of carbon
or contact, although two pinpoint aqua specks are visible upon
magnification, one near the second T in STATES, and the other
inside the 8 in 1856.(Registry values: N4719)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 227A, PCGS# 2037, GSID# 15311)
