America's First Small-Size One-Cent Coins
America's First Small-Size One-Cent Coins
America's First Small-Size One-Cent Coins
More than 160 years old, and issued for two years only…
- Both the 1857 and 1858 Flying Eagle pennies — the ONLY two years in which the first-ever small-size one-cent coin was issued for circulation.
- One of America’s shortest-lived coin designs, the experimental Flying Eagle was itself replaced by the Indian Head penny in 1859.
- The rising price of copper and the court of popular opinion forced the U.S. Mint to replace large-size one-cent coins with the immediately popular smaller-sized coinage.
- Presented in matching gently circulated condition, with major design details intact, and protectively encased in crystal-clear capsules.
- A deluxe wooden Display Chest, with a wooden insert that flips up to the optimal angle for easy viewing, and Collector’s Guide are included.
