Description
Vibrant 1857 Flying Eagle Cent, PR63 Cameo
1857 1C PR63 Cameo PCGS. Snow-PR1. When we previously offered this cent six years ago, we wrote: "This issue is rare, and the present specimen is of further import because it is the first proof 1857 Flying Eagle cent to receive a Cameo designation at PCGS (10/02)." Today, PCGS has certified a mere 14 Cameo proof 1857 Flying Eagle cents.The mirrored fields are about as deep and vibrant as one is likely to see on a specimen striking of this type. Furthermore, the devices are fully defined and the denticles crisp--features that further confirm this coin's status as a proof. There are a few wispy hairlines and scattered contact marks on both sides, none of which are singularly distracting. A scintillating, medium tan representative with suggestions of champagne tinting. Population: 2 in 63 Cameo, 12 finer (2/09).
