<p>[QUOTE=&quot;iGradeMS70, post: 1160976, member: 29109&quot;]Hey CoinTalkers! Just a quick question. I was trying to figure out why Flying Eagle Cents aren&#039;t labeled with &quot;Red (RD)&quot; or &quot;Red-Brown (RB)&quot; on a slab when certified by a professional coin grading company. They are composed of a copper &amp; nickel alloy (Is it due to the fact of the inclusion of nickel in the coin?) just as the Indian Head &quot;Fatty&quot; Cents with the same thickness as well, but those are designated with these RD &amp; RB labels right (I may be incorrect)? I just found it very interesting since the majority of the coin is infact composed of copper. You would think it would increase the value of a Flying Eagle Cent if label as RD or RB, and you&#039;d also think PCGS, NGC, ANACS ect. would want that wouldn&#039;t you :scratch:? Do they still bring a premium above a BN coin if it is noticably RD even if not labeled that on the slab? Whoever thinks they know why this is please comment on this thread below. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Thanks Everyone,</p><p>Brian</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>PS: I figured I&#039;d just post this for confirmation...</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>[ATTACH]120561.vB[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]120562.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
