1858. Pattern Flying Eagle Cent. J-191, P-234, Rarity-7. Plain edge. . J-191. PCGS graded Proof 63. Struck on a slightly rough planchet, and now toned a sunset gold color. Sharply impressed by the dies, and one of the rarer combinations made in 1858. There is a small low spot above the 58 in the date, and another on the E of ONE on the reverse. The mirror fields are hazy in appearance. Probably more of a rarity-6 today with 22 graded by PCGS, this at the low end of those reported in the population report.
