Just received my Flying Eagle cent by mail today! I love how the eagle is popping out of the field. The coin was obtained from an online coin store a week ago for a good price I think.
So let's guess what grade ANACS gave this coin. Photos are taken with my Android with the coin in the holder.

I'm thinking ANACS gave it an EF45 but it's really an mid range AU coin.

Not mint state, but a solid AU with minor marks, no obvious signs of cleaning, and good eye appeal. Nice coin, not surprised you like it!

It looks close to Mint State. I'd guess AU55.

Tough crowd! ANACS was much milder and graded the coin AU58.
