    Description

    1857 Flying Eagle Cent, Choice Almost Uncirculated.  Well struck and original, an original AU/Unc "slider" that saw minimal if any real circulation, being put aside almost immediately after release as a souvenir of the new Type. This came out of an old non-numismatic accumulation, and shows the minor effects of less than ideal storage, in terms of surface color.  The early Copper-Nickel Flying Eagle and Indian Cents were very subject to staining or odd toning due to their composition. Minor rim damage below the date would likely not show once placed into an album page. Of possible interest is an obvious, significant die gouge in the Eagle's left wing (enlargement shown).  This also appears to have had a missing wing tip retouched manually, similar to Snow 15, however the other details do not match that variety.  A possible new discovery, something for the interested observer to ponder.  Otherwise, certainly a more than adequate, high grade example to represent the Type.
