Description
Popular 1856 Snow-5 Flying Eagle Cent, PR63
1856 1C PR63 PCGS. Snow-5. A rare die pairing, much less often seen than the usual Snow-9. Both varieties share the same reverse, noted for its center dot beneath the upper left serif of the N in CENT. The obverses differ, however, with Snow-5 distinguished by a tiny mint-made point on the base of the U in UNITED. According to Rick Snow in his reference The Flying Eagle & Indian Cent Attribution Guide, 2nd Edition Volume 1 1856-1858, "perhaps less than 35 examples of this die pair exist in all grades." This is a razor-sharp proof with mildly reflective fields. Dusky orange and olive toning graces the problem-free surfaces. Certified in a green label PCGS holder.(Registry values: N4719)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 227A, PCGS# 2037, GSID# 15311)
