Three major clashed-die varieties are known for 1857: Snow-7 with a Double Eagle obverse, Snow-8 with a Seated Quarter reverse, and Snow-9 with a Seated Half Dollar obverse, as offered here. The partial silhouette and elements of the half dollar design remain visibly impressed around the flying eagle, creating an unmistakable artifact of the Minting process. This exceptional MS65 PCGS CAC example, additionally approved with an Eagle Eye Photo Seal, combines the celebrated variety with extraordinary visual appeal. Fiery sun-gold coloration radiates across both sides, joined by intense orange, copper-red and subtle iridescent accents, particularly through the eagle’s wings and across the reverse wreath and bow. The strike is bold, the fields retain vibrant satiny mint luster, and the surfaces are remarkably clean for the Gem grade. With an overall 1857 mintage of 17,450,000, Snow-9 represents only a tiny specialized subset of the issue and is highly sought after by Flying Eagle specialists.

Historically, 1857 was the inaugural year of regular-issue Flying Eagle cent production and marked the United States’ transition from the cumbersome large cent to the new small-cent format, making this remarkable mint-error variety an especially evocative survivor from a pivotal moment in American coinage. Even if this wasnt a rare variety, this coin for this eye appeal and color would already be recommended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgs.com\/cert\/43291218\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003ePCGS Cert Verification #43291218\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• PCGS POP - 9\/3 Total (309\/64)\u003cbr\u003e• CAC Price Guide - $5,500\u003cbr\u003e• CAC POP - 4\/0\u003cbr\u003e• PCGS Coin# \u003ca class=\"underline\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgs.com\/coinfacts\/coin\/detail\/37375\/65\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e37375\u003c\/a\u003e Variety of # \u003ca class=\"underline\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgs.com\/coinfacts\/coin\/detail\/2016\/65\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e2016\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PCGS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39518700634183,"sku":"43291218","price":8250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0262\/3891\/0535\/files\/1857_Flying_Eagle_Cent_1C_S-9_DIE_CLASH_50C_MS65_PCGS_CAC_EEPS.png?v=1791548111","url":"https:\/\/paradimecoins.com\/products\/1857-1c-s-9-die-clash-50c-ms65-pcgs-cac-eeps","provider":"Paradime Coins","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
