- In response, the U.S. Mint abandoned the coin and issued a smaller coin that was made from 88% copper and 12% nickel
- The new coin was instantly popular and featured a flying eagle that was originally designed by Christian Golbrecht
- Your coin is over 150 years old and is dated either 1857 or 1858
