Screaming Eagles 的钱币相册
EEPS. PDS:(13: 3,5,5). This is the rare “tilted ONE CENT reverse”. This is believed to be the first prototype of the 1856 Flying Eagle cent and this die pair is the first struck in 1856. This is a very rare and important coin. Only 12 examples are known; this one is newly discovered. Two of the 12 examples have been lost or stolen. This coin ranks as #4 by grade. The PR64 sold for $100K & a AU58 sold for $35K over 10 years ago. So, rare indeed! This example has good mirrors and a chocolate BN appearance. It has been tested and is a definite copper nickel striking in the 88:12 ratio. All examples of the S-1 show a somewhat “coppery” color to some extent. This piece has 2 small scratches by the O in OF and a hit under the N in CENT. The toning is into these marks, so they are very old. This accounts for the 62 grade. Still, it is a very attractive, even flashy coin. When the ONE CENT is level, the eagle is flying upward when the coin is flipped over. Apparently, this oddity was incorporated into the master die. It will not vary in any of the S-1 examples. The die was discarded and never used again. GREAT COIN! It has to be THE prize of the PR Flying Eagle series!

EEPS. By any measure, the 1856 PR64 S-2 is an extreme rarity. Expert Rick Snow estimates there are 10 examples extant, likely less. In the PCGS pop, only a PR64 CAM rates higher. When coin was designated, the original PS was not included, but will be added again soon. The S-2 is a distinctive 1856 PR, easily attributed by the “tail” emanating from the bottom of the U in United, a bold 1 in the date in relation to the 856 & a high leaves reverse. Mirrors on this piece are highly reflective; the obv in particular has a deep, rich golden hue. Spotting is evident in the truview pics & not surprisingly as these photos bring out the great color & mirrors. Fortunately, while visible, they are not quite as prominent under a lamp, or natural light. Positively, they attest to the coin’s originality. Not only is this a great rarity, it is an important piece of history. Awesome!

EEPS. CAC (not shown in slab pic). PDS (14: 4,5,5). This is an exceptional example of the classic 1856 original issue. It has a highly polished die state which imparts a cameo contrast to the devices. The reverse die state shows vertical die polishing which is not found on any other 1856 S-3. This fits into the mid die state of the progression and must have been one of the first examples off the newly polished dies. The quality of this piece is outstanding. The grade given accounts for a few light marks that are visible due to the highly mirrored fields, but the coin is a beautiful proof example. This is very unusual for any 1856, let alone a Snow-3. There is no toning & the eye appeal is that if a true GEM (PR65).

EEPS. PDS: PR (12: 4,4,4). Low leaves reverse. As a design type, this is a very important 1856 die pair. The low leaves reverse was a redesign intended to lower the relief of the wreath. It was first used in mid-1858 when the small letters design was prepared. The 1856 FE’s were struck with the initial design, known as high leaves. The difference is the inner leaves by the C & T in CENT. The low leaves have short, stubby leaves, while the high leaves are longer. The 1856 shouldn’t be paired with the low leaves design, but here is a very rare example. It must have been struck in mid 1858 or later. It is quite rare with about 20 struck. FE expert Rick Snow has traced 10 examples to date. This piece has good mirrors with a slight cameo contrast. It is a very beautiful example with a light golden tone.

The 1856 shouldn’t be paired with the low leaves design, but here is a very rare example. It must have been struck in mid 1858 or later. It is quite rare with about 20 struck. FE expert Rick Snow has traced 10 examples to date. This piece has good mirrors with a slight cameo contrast. It is a very beautiful example with a light golden tone.
EEPS. PDS: PR (12: 4,4,4). Low leaves reverse. As a design type, this is a very important 1856 die pair. The low leaves reverse was a redesign intended to lower the relief of the wreath. It was first used in mid-1858 when the small letters design was prepared. The 1856 FE’s were struck with the initial design, known as high leaves. The difference is the inner leaves by the C & T in CENT. The low leaves have short, stubby leaves, while the high leaves are longer.

EEPS. PDS (14: 4,5,5). Wright Flyer collection. This is an outstanding example with great mirrors & nearly flawless surfaces. It has a shot @ PR66. There are a few old pieces of debris in the protected areas, but the are not invasive to the metal. The only mark mentionable is a minor contact mark above the “ON” in One on the reverse. The dies show heavy polish with die striations. This is the original proof die pair. It is the earliest usage of both dies, so it can be placed in the 1856 striking period. The obverse is later used on S4 & the reverse on S9. Only 15 examples of the Snow 5 die pair are known. These are special as they are from the original striking period & are likely presentation pieces.
