    Notes:
    The "Large Letters" designation refers to lettering on the obverse.
    On the Large Letters variety, the letters A and M of AMERICA touch each other, whereas on the Small Letters variety, they are clearly separated.
    The Flying Eagle Cents of 1856 and 1857 are of the Large Letters variety.
    The actual size of the lettering is clearly smaller on the 1858 Small Letters variety and appears to be a minor modification of the design type.
