1857 1C Flying Eagle PR64 Cameo PCGS. Snow-1.
<table><tr><td><table><tr><td>1857 1C Flying Eagle PR64 Cameo PCGS. Snow-1. The 857 in the date is strongly repunched southwest. Struck from the "Style of 1856" dies, which feature boxy letters in the obverse legend, particularly on the O in OF. An exquisitely struck near-Gem with pleasing Cameo contrast between the Flying Eagle and the reflective field. Orange and olive colors illuminate the unabraded surfaces. For pedigree purposes, a tiny mint-made planchet flaw is noted below the eagle's neck, and a tiny area of granular surface resides beneath the wingtip. As a proof, the 1857 is the most elusive issue in the short series, and among proof Small Cents, it is exceeded in rarity only the 1864 With L Cent. <BR><BR><B>Important notice:</B> Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 200-250 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since eBay bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. In most cases the floor responds before the eBay bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie eBay live bids. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 20% Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid. <BR><BR><B>IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT ABOUT RESERVES:</B> Heritage now divulges all reserves on its web site 7 days before every auction. If you want to know whether the reserve on this lot has been met, and if not, what the reserve amount is, please visit this lot page on the HeritageCoin.com web site, or email: bid@HeritageGalleries.com </span></font></td></tr></table></td></tr></table>
