    Nice B-Day present! Love the IHC series. Next year, an 1856 perhaps?

    Love it. Sharp strike, nice color!

    If you ever tire of that one, it could come live with me! ;)

    In 48 years of collecting, the highest graded Flying Eagle cent I've owned was a PCGS XF45. (Well, I did once have a holed UNC).
