Lot Description

A Second 1856 Snow-3 Flying Eagle Cent 1856 Flying Eagle Cent. Snow-3. Repunched 5, High Leaves. VF-25 (PCGS). CAC. Eagle Eye Photo Seal. This handsome piece exhibits warm, even golden-tan patina to both sides, the reverse with warm rose outlines to the design elements. The surfaces are smooth suggesting careful handling over the years, this despite the presence of moderate wear. The higher elements of the design are a bit soft in keeping with the assigned grade, but plenty of bold striking detail remains in the recessed areas. PCGS# 2013. NGC ID: B2CX.
