Obverse: Features a detailed flying eagle in flight, with the inscription "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" around the rim. The year "1858" is prominently displayed at the bottom.
Reverse: Displays the denomination "ONE CENT" surrounded by a wreath of laurel and oak leaves, tied with a bow at the bottom.
Historical Note: The Flying Eagle Cent was minted from 1856 to 1858 and was the first small-sized cent produced by the U.S. Mint, replacing the larger cent format. The 1858 issue is one of the more common dates, making it a popular collector's piece for its historic significance as a transitional coin design.
