<p>[QUOTE="C-B-D, post: 2426061, member: 43130"]I find flying eagle cents VERY difficult to grade when they're in AU to BU. The strikes are all over the place, and copper nickel doesn't show wear as clearly as silver coins. So honestly, coins 1 and 2 look BU to me. Coins 4 and 5 do as well, especially coin 5... which had the best luster of the bunch, but shows possible wear on the eagle's breast. Also, coin 3 is absolutely hammered, and has almost proof like fields, but also quite a few marks/hits, so who knows what it is... Basically I have no idea.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
