Lot Description

<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. A boldly impressed, attractively original specimen with an even endowment of walnut-brown patina to both sides. There are no detracting blemishes, and the eye appeal alone would seem to suggest a full Gem rating.
