Just ordered this gorgeously Toned Flying Eagle. Photo Seal and CAC. It will fit in nice with my other toned pennies.

    Don't listen to the multi-dudes who would tell you to dip it.

    Nice coin.

    I should already know this, but were FE Cents copper, bronze, or copper-nickel? I know the first IHC were CN, but this coin appears to be Cu or bronze.

    I really like this one - just enough color to be beautiful but not enough to be overdone or cause you to question the veracity of the toning.

    I was thinking the same thing when I pulled the trigger.

    Heck of a coin. What did she grade?

    It's a really nice coin, but I still like yours better. :)

    Tell me, why do you think it graded 63. I must admit that was a bit surprising. Thought it would have been a 4 from the photos.

    There are some light marks and the truview shows the coin well. That being said it seems to have been harshly graded. If I were to sell I would probably try for an upgrade.
