My ancestor kept over 20 of these 1857 Flying Eagles however most of them are low grade, this is probably the best one. What he probably didn't know at the time is that this is an error coin. The coin is a "Snow-9 Obv. Die Clash With 50c". While that won't change the grading it does give a little bump to the value.

vg8. it does look like some corrosion has damaged the surface of the reverse.
IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS
THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

Now you need to find the corresponding 50c to go with it.

I have some Seated Liberty 50 cent coins, but none are 1857.

Also for anyone that wants to see what that Die Clash looks like with the Seated Liberty Half see the link below.

VG details for me and a very nice clash! Shame about the corrosion on the reverse but a really solid variety! Easily recognizable and always fun to see.
