Obverse Description: An eagle with wings extended in full flight fills the central obverse design with the words UNITED STATES OF AMERICA around the top periphery. The date is centered at the bottom.
Reverse Description: The reverse bears the denomination of ONE CENT in the center surrounded by a wreath bearing a ribbon tied in at the bottom center.
General Notes: Very popular as the key date in the Flying Eagle business strike set, proof coins are far more common than their accepted business-strike counterparts (see 1856 Flying Eagle MS). For this reason, proof examples -- which are the most common date of any in the Flying Eagle type -- are more desirable than the 1857-1858 issues.
