I often like how the copper-nickel alloy used in the 1856-1864 US Flying Eagle and Indian cents toned over time.
The Flyer cent below is the last one I owned, around 2013 or so. It was OK, but I want one with even better contrast.
Post your crusty and/or darkish Flyers or early Indian cents!
Flashy UNCs need not apply. This thread's for the circulated ones that did their day in commerce.



Collector since 1976. On the CU forums here since 2001.

I like the look of coins that experience a lot of commerce, but without significant hits or damage. Good to see you posting again LordM....Cheers, RickO
