1856 1C Flying Eagle S-4 PR63+ 认证号28491837, PCGS号389777

EEPS. PDS: PR (12: 4,4,4). Low leaves reverse. As a design type, this is a very important 1856 die pair. The low leaves reverse was a redesign intended to lower the relief of the wreath. It was first used in mid-1858 when the small letters design was prepared. The 1856 FE’s were struck with the initial design, known as high leaves. The difference is the inner leaves by the C & T in CENT. The low leaves have short, stubby leaves, while the high leaves are longer. The 1856 shouldn’t be paired with the low leaves design, but here is a very rare example. It must have been struck in mid 1858 or later. It is quite rare with about 20 struck. FE expert Rick Snow has traced 10 examples to date. This piece has good mirrors with a slight cameo contrast. It is a very beautiful example with a light golden tone.
