1858 Pattern Flying Eagle Cent, J-204, rarity 5, copper-nickel, plain edge. PCGS graded Proof 61. Pollock-248, AW-257. This is an example of the famous "skinny eagle" thought to have been designed by A. C. Paquet. Beautiful color and toning, but the surfaces have moderate tick marks accounting for the grade. This coin has "gem" color and eye appeal, but will be priced far less due to the grade.
From the Madison Collection.
