1858 Flying Eagle Cent. Small Letters, Low Leaves (Style of 1858), Type II. MS-64+ (NGC).Delightful satin surfaces are highly lustrous with splashes of vivid reddish-rose and powder blue iridescence further enlivening both sides. A base of equally attractive champagne-apricot patina is also noted. Sharply to fully struck and carefully preserved, this is an exceptionally colorful near-Gem type candidate from the brief Flying Eagle cent series of 1856 to 1858.
