Coronet Head Large

Flying Eagle Penny

1856 marked an auspicious yr within the history of the US Mint. From the very beginning, one cent pieces had been a staple of United States coins. Everybody knew their look and their feel. Everybody was comfy with the coin, until 1856.

Since the beginning of US coinage, the face of the one cent piece had featured a depiction of the goddess Liberty. Admittedly, there had been several different depictions of Liberty, with every offering its coin with an interesting name. Flowing Hair Cents have been produced by the US Mint from 1793 by 1796, once they were replaced by Draped Bust Cents. The Traditional Head Cent design was the design produced from 1808 by way of 1814 when it was changed by the Coronet Head Cent. Finally, the Braided Hair Cent took heart stage in 1839. It was additionally known as the “Foolish Head” or the “Booby Head” Cent. The Braided Hair Cent was produced via 1857.

People started to object to carrying round these coins. Some people stated the cash were too giant, with a diameter of 27.5 millimeters (retailers complained that the coins “clogged up” their tills). There were complaints that the coins had been too heavy, weighing in at a hefty 10.89 grams. The public seemed to be ready for a change in its pennies.

In 1856 the US Mint began producing a smaller, lighter one cent coin. The Flying Eagle Cent was the primary of what collectors now confer with as “Small Cents” (weighing 4.7 grams with a diameter of 19 millimeters) contrasted with the one cent coins heretofore produced being dubbed “Massive Cents.”

The public did not like the coin. The Flying Eagle Cent did not encompass pure copper, as had all one previous one cent coins. It was 88% copper and 12% nickel. The lighter colour brought about the public to derogatorily discuss with the new cent because the “white cent.” Individuals were not pleased with the design either. Although design on the obverse (or face) of James Barton Long acre’s coin depicts an Eagle in Flight, individuals typically referred to the coin as the “Buzzard Cent.”

Officials at the US Mint were embarrassed. They rapidly made plans to revamp the coin. Longacre was commissioned to provide the new design. The Eagle was removed, and Liberty returned to the entrance of the one cent coin, this time sporting a Native American headdress. The Indian Head Cent remains probably the most well-liked coins ever produced by the US Mint, while the Flying Eagle Cent took its place among the coins with the briefest mintage in US history…simply [two] years (1857-1858).

Incidentally, for those who occur to find a Flying Eagle Cent bearing the date 1856, you’ll be well-suggested to take the coin to an skilled to have it evaluated. The 1856 cash have been solely produced as examples to be presented to Congress and different officials to encourage them to help the coin’s acceptance. Once the vote was taken, legislators were alleged to return the cash to the US Treasury. The cash had been speculated to be destroyed, and minting of the Flying Eagle Cent to start in 1857.

Somehow, not the entire coins made their method again to the Mint. Evidently some of them had been saved as souvenirs by numerous people. The cash’ rarity triggered their collector’s worth to soar. Now, even the most mediocre specimens of the 1856 Flying Eagle Cent promote for in excess of $5,000, with the nicest of these coins expected to deliver properly in excess of $a hundred,000. (The Professional Coin Grading Service lists the value of the very best grade Flying Eagles they’ve certified as $a hundred and fifty,000.) Evidently, counterfeiters have taken word of those numbers and have taken steps to attempt to defraud people by producing and promoting fakes.

So a set of Flying Eagle Cents consists of three coins . . . the 1857, and [two] varieties (Massive Letters and Small Letters) of the 1858. You should purchase attractive specimens of all three coins for a total of lower than $200.
