1858 Flying Eagle Cent 1C AG About Good Copper-Nickel Small Cent Type Coin

The Flying Eagle cent was struck only from 1856 to 1858. It was the first U.S. small cent, replacing the large copper cent, and its copper-nickel alloy gives it a pale, grayish color.

This 1858 grades About Good: the eagle's outline is clear, while the lettering is partly worn into the rim and the date is very weak (the close-up photo shows it). The agricultural wreath of corn, wheat, cotton and tobacco is bold, with CENT readable. Large vs. small letters cannot be determined at this grade, so no variety is claimed.

Please note dark spots and some green in the recesses, and a dark spot at the upper right of the wreath.

BOURNE2TREASURE
WHO WE ARE Bourne2Treasure is a family-owned business based in Dayton, TN, proud to be celebrating our 25th year in operation. Along the way we’ve earned over 27,000 pieces of feedback as a seller.
SHIPPING Every coin we sell ships in protective packaging — no exceptions. The exact container depends on the shipping class: for example, our Standard Envelope option is limited to a maximum of 1/4" thickness, so a bubble mailer isn’t used there. Instead, coins travel in a vinyl flip, a thick baggie, or a cardboard flip, whichever best protects that particular coin. We ship daily, Monday through Friday, excluding all USPS holidays.
RETURNS / GUARANTEE We maintain (unless otherwise noted on items like bullion) a 30-day, FREE-to-you return policy. All we want is happy customers — if you don’t like what we send, just send it back, free of charge.
QUESTIONS? CONTACT US Contact us Monday–Friday, 9–5 EST, with any questions or concerns. Our number one goal is happy customers who buy from us time and time again. If you ever have an issue, please let us know — and remember, our return policy above has you covered.
GRADING DISCLAIMER We arrive at an approximate grade using a combination of our own years of experience and, increasingly, Artificial Intelligence (AI). We are not a professional grading service, and any grade shown is only an approximation — please make your own determination based on the photos provided.
