I was watching this auction and I saw the large scratch on the reverse over "CENT" and the small rim bump on the obverse but why did it close so high? First person to tell me why it went so high in bidding gets a Flying Eagle cent date of my choice. Just post "I see it" and send me a PM. Good luck! EDIT**** 2nd and 3rd place winners will get a prize too. 2nd gets a Fine or better IHC. 3rd gets a VF+ Buffalo 5¢ https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/USA-FLYI...283567167945Edited by bandsdean 08/06/2019 4:43 pm

Zurie is the 3rd correct winner. Coin is 1858 over 1857 strong overdate. Google 1858/7 Flying eagle and take a look. Thanks all for playing!
