1855 J-171 PCGS PR58

1855 J-171 PCGS PR58 

This is a larger size than the cent that was adopted for the flying Eagle cents in the few years following (the first smaller, current size cents).

This was still in size of the Large Cents circulating at the time.

PCGS and NGC combined are showing only a total of 9 coins graded in all grades! Just a total of 9 pieces in total on the pop reports of both services. This is the only Proof 58. Going back 25 years, a handful total of these have appeared in public auction including prices realized of $6,000 or an XF 40 grade, $9,200 for an XF 45, and $12,650 for the MS 62 grade coin.

For the advanced collector this is probably the only chance to acquire this historic rare U.S. Mint issue. We are selling it for just $8500
