The 1857 Flying Eagle S-3, and S-4 DDO varieties are almost the same with the exception of the S-3 has the missing wingtip as the S-4 has the broken wingtip. They are both desirable varieties with the Snow-4 being more scarce than the Snow-3. A very nice pick-up! My guess as towards its grade is either VG-10 or F-12. Edited by Finn70

Thanks for taking a look everyone and adding info about the differences in the wing Finn70.
It's hard to know if the info we share, and others come across about collecting, will be the one that "sticks" and gets remembered. So thanks to all that take the time to add insight and comments. It all adds up.

ANACS had this one at F15 which I feel grateful for. Thanks again guys.  Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.

Actually, I had my snow 3 and 4 varieties reversed. Looks like you have the missing wingtip S-4 variety. My apologies for my erroneous observation. I have both these varieties and they are a joy to look at!

If anyone is interested in Flying Eagle and Indian Head cent varieties, this book is worth its weight in gold! I highly recommend it! |
