I spent the evening poring over Flying Eagle cents on ebay tonight... what about them are so seductive? I am seeing a bunch of weak strike coins and lots of high priced coins, but nothing in my limited budget right now... but man, I LOVE this series! Anyone else here in love with them too?

They are probably my most favorite design of all American coins. I just wish they would have be more practical to make, then there would be more years to collect.

Flying Eagles are also one of my favorite designs, I just can't get enough of them... But my dream coin is to own a Gobrecht dollar, it incorporates my two favorite designs, the Seated Liberty and the Flying Eagle..

They rank pretty high on my list of best designs and are one of my personal favorites, too.

They will be my most likely target along with Indian heads once my EV7070 is done (assuming I finish it).

If you have already forgotten those coins from a few days ago your short term memory must be about as bad as mine is
