1856 Snow 3. Repunched 5. High Leaves. Brilliant Proof, virtually Choice. An extremely powerful strike...
- virtually Choice. An extremely powerful strike has brought out every last detail in the eagle and the wreath and has created knife-sharp rims and an edge that is fully 2mm high! Golden prooflike surfaces radiate hints of yellow and pale blue when rotated in the light on this stunning little jewel that is just a few hairlines away from a full Choice Proof grade. Snow believes that the...  more

1856 Snow 9. Die Line above I, Center Dot. Very Choice Brilliant Proof. Deep brown-gold surfaces are...
Deep brown-gold surfaces are edged in brighter orange-gold for vivid beauty and undeniable appeal. A very sharply struck example, examination under a glass reveals reverse die rust involving two denticles at 10:00 that ''hallmark'' this specific die. Richard Snow's reverse variety 9 shows a high leaf at 'C', low leaf below 'T' of CENT. This very conservatively graded piece is essentially...  more

1858 Small Letters. Snow PT-9. Breen 1933. Choice Brilliant Uncirculated. This beautiful jewel has...
This beautiful jewel has reflective Prooflike fields that glow with aqua and rose iridescence. Special care was obviously taken during the production of this specimen as displayed by the sharply squared rims. This particular die variety was included in the mint issued 12 piece pattern sets in 1858, but is not technically a pattern since the type was issued for circulation that year. A very...  more
2484 1858/7 Large Letters. Overdate. Snow 1. Early Die State. Choice Brilliant Uncirculated CH BU $11,000.00
1858/7 Large Letters. Overdate. Snow 1. Early Die State. Choice Brilliant Uncirculated, with some...
- with some claims to a higher grade. Here is a glorious specimen of this much sought after overdate featuring the most beautifully original, golden-red lustre that is more reminiscent of one of the later bronze Indian Cents than a Copper-Nickel Flying Eagle Cent! Struck from the most collectible early state of the obverse die (called Die stage A by Snow) boldly exhibiting the upper right...  more
