Description: The 1857 Flying Eagle cent marks a significant shift in U.S. coinage, being the first small cent introduced after the large cent era. This coin was struck to address the practicality issues of the previous series, making it a pivotal transitional piece in American numismatic history. This example, graded AU58 by PCGS, is a beauty juuuust shy of mint state. And in fact, there's a strong argument that under modern day standards, this would fully qualify as an uncirculated coin. Regardless, housed in a classic OGH with soft satiny original surfaces, this coin is delightful. Both the obverse and reverse maintain solid details, and the overall eye appeal is enhanced by its pleasing, original patina. A fantastic opportunity to own a piece of numismatic history in a perfect classic holder.
