Do you own a Flyer?

Love the DDO @ldhair

I had one. I found it in circulation in the fifties. Not in real good condition, but it was something I kept for many years.

 

Here's a new one in the search results...

 

Okay, here's my biggie.
1856 PCGS MS-62 S-3
Note that it's an MS rather than a PF.
The S-3 variety is considered a business strike.

 

Wow. An important coin and worth a lot.

 

Definitely need an armed guard on that one. Any idea of how many of these are known to exist?

 

Yes the 1856 is a monster. Beauty.

 

I'll guess that 56 is in the 20K range.

 

Wow!

 

For those that might be interested, The FLY-N CLUB will be having a meeting at the FUN show in January. Everyone is welcome. Rick Snow and Charmy always have fun information to share.

 

Almost any Flyer is going to be an anti-climax after that one. Here's mine, which lives in a PCGS MS-63 holder. I'll probably have it reslabbed, since I can't seem to remove the smudge on the reverse plastic, and I may see if I can have the verdigris stabilized at the same time:

 

I want one really bad, such a great coin.



Thanks,
Jacob

 

21k if I recall correctly.
And it's got an Eagle Eye sticker.

 

That's a real beauty!

 

I only own one, for my typeset. Graded NGC MS-64 PL. Prooflike Flyers are super rare, but this one has very attractive reflective surfaces.
