I missed my 1857 flying eagle. Well, I can't miss church. If you post it, I don't think we will tell on you. Just follow with an 1848 or 1847  I don't think I have any coins from 1840's

My next entry will be in the 1820's, so I guess I'll have a few days to get good pics for ones

the 1857 flying eagle is the oldest coin in my collection, except for an 1804 Half Cent that I bought out of the $5 type coin bin.

Are we already beaten? I might just have to buy a 1843 just for this...

I find it hard to believe that we're beaten already. Unfortunately I can't help until 1827..

Here is my 1844 half-farthing. It's also the E/N variety.

I'm on hold until 1841. I hope someone else has a better specimen that year than I do.. mine is only half a coin.
