1857 Flying Eagle Cent (1c)

Warm, honeyed tan surfaces with soft golden luster give this near-gem Flying Eagle a wonderfully original look - exactly the natural copper-nickel color you want on the type. The strike is sharp, with well struck breast and wing feathers on the eagle. Fields are smooth and pleasing, with just a few trivial ticks capping the grade. Housed in a PCGS holder and CAC-approved, this example delivers strong, honest eye appeal.
