Astonishing 1854 Flying Eagle Large Cent Pattern--NGC PF67BN (Electric Blue)

Rick Snow got this from the ANR sale, and not only let me take a nice look, but let me photograph it. The strike on this is astounding, and the devices just leap out at you. The mirrors and color are phenomenal, and the coin overall is just unbelieveable. The pictures were taken on the bourse, so they aren't as good as I'd like (blue's stronger), but I think they came out ok... really, just a marvelous coin!

What a coin.

And to think that it only went for about 15K more than I could come up with.

Very very nice.

He knew... I just needed $22.5k and he'd have sold it to me...

Jeremy, Thanks for posting the image. The patterns in the ANR sale mostly all came from an old collection from the 1940's. They were stored in small cardboard boxes which were included in the lot. Really neat to have a beautiful blue toner looking like the day it was made and the box that it was stored in for 60 years.

Here are your pictures with a brightness fix:
