Paddy54 Posted February 11 · Member Share Posted February 11 (edited) Two of my favorite series to pick is the Flying Eagle, and Indian Head Cents. Here's a last night pick that is proof they can still be found in the wild. The 1858 FEC is another example of the US Mint's year of crazy varieties . So many that involve MPD's RPD's DDO's inverted dates. I cannot think of another year that offered so many varieties over the denominations produced. Another to cross off my pickin bucket list.... The 1858 FEC snow #002 snow 7 has been on my list for awhile...until yesterday! You can see the 1 and its flag above the date to the underside of the Eagle. The 8 has the 7's top protruding to the east. Making the an over date .plus it's an ddo too! Edited February 12 by Paddy54 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddy54 Posted February 11 · Member Author Share Posted February 11 (edited) This specimen is an 1857 struck on an 1856 die as it was reworked for the 1857 year striking. Another FEC pick as it's also a ddo. Edited February 11 by Paddy54 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
