1857 Flying Eagle Cent (1c)

The 1857 Flying Eagle cent marks the introduction of small cents in the United States, replacing the larger copper cents used previously. This debut year is especially popular due to its pivotal role in numismatic history.

This coin in MS65 is a stunner! Its surfaces display a rich, satiny texture with sharply defined details, a testament to its preservation. The luster is vibrant, showcasing a delightful, even patina that enhances its eye appeal. The fields are remarkably clean, with minimal contact marks, making it an attractive high-grade representation of this historic issue.
