Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 12/02/2016 8:06 pm The obverse rim hit at 4:00 is probably a factor in the price. And the color, at least in these pics, does not appear natural. Report this Post to the Staff
paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 12/02/2016 8:24 pm It's real, large letters variety, color looks correct, does have rim damage. $12 is decent market value.

harpua New Member United States 30 Posts	Posted 12/03/2016 07:34 am Nice coin for the money. I've been collecting for 35+ years and have always been fascinated by the flying eagle series. Not sure why it fascinates me so, but surprisingly enough, I've yet to actually own one. I'll have to make that change here soon. Report this Post to the Staff
