Just added a Flying Eagle Cent to my type set.

AZLARRY

I just received this PCGS MS64 1857 FE cent for my type collection. I’ve been looking for some time. I wanted a good strike, very few spots or blemishes and good eye appeal. I’m happy with this one, it looks better in hand. Longacre designed a beautiful coin in this one. My images need more work, these are my first shots of it.

Excellent.

Great looking Flyer! I know how long it takes to locate choice MS64 examples like this one (it took me a couple of years to complete a short set of the three standard issues).

Enjoy

I like that one A LOT. So much, in fact, I have to wonder why it is a 64 and not higher...Mike

p.s. what a strike!!!

You did a great job. Very "crisp" coin.

wow wow wow

you got one hell of an ms 64 coin it has to be the best strike and colorwise ms64 i have ever seen and marks wise looks better than many MANY MS65 COINS I HAVE SEEN PCGS AND NGC

and also in terms of strike and coloration looks better than many to all of the ms 65 coins i have seen again pcgs and ngc the last year or so

you got a great coin now scans are one thing and sight seen in hand are another but man that looks like a liner ms 65 if not an undergraded ms65 in a 64 holder

you gots a really good flyer there and one sexy type coin

michael

if as you say the flyer looks better in hand then the obverse is for me ms65 and the reverse is a liner 64.99++++

a coin that is definately a grading arbritarge coin to me


superb

Thanks everyone, when I started collecting years ago the "old" guys always preached patience. I think in this case it paid off.

Wow and congrats.

I have been looking for a long time to find an affordable, lower grade, clean, good strike etc.. and have had no luck.
