Up for auction is a very scarce and highly sought, 1857, Type of 1856. S-1 Variety. To quote from Richard Snow “ This is the only die variety from the “Obverse of 1856” group. These are quite scarce and in high demand. The coins from this die are some of the most attractive regular issue Flying Eagles struck. Usually with sharp strikes and very fine details. The earliest strikes are prooflike and at times have been confused for proofs by auction catalogers and grading services. Probably no more than 300 known.” The example at hand has mirror like fields on both the Obverse and reverse and when examining the coin, it is very easy to notice that it is different than other Flying Eagles. A great find, the first we have ever offered! A Corey's Pick, Bid to Win, Don't let it get Away, you might not find its equal Coin. I give this coin my highest recommendation
