Great job on the flying eagle, Rich. You don't see them every day that's for sure!

Nice Flying Eagle Cent! They didn't make those for much longer than a couple years in the late 1850's so they are definitely a rare find! Pre-Civil War American coinage always makes for a great hunt! :treasurechest::icon_thumright:
