Description du lot

<strong>Obv:</strong> Thirteen peripheral stars surround a long-necked flying eagle, with its head tilted slightly upward, the date 1855 below. <strong>Rev:</strong> A circular wreath surrounds the denomination ONE CENT with the legend UNITED STATES OF AMERICA around the periphery. Struck in bronze (93% copper, 5.4% tin, 1.2% zinc). A sharply impressed, attractively original specimen with an even endowment of copper-brown patina to both sides. There are no detracting blemishes, and the eye appeal alone would seem to suggest a full Gem rating.<p><p>
