Default Value Of 1857 FE Cent DDO

I saw an 1857 Flying Eagle Cent, nice XF+ with doubling on the date, tail of
the eagle, and last letters of AMERICA. Is the coin worth any premium??

TIA

Harvey

The Cherrypickers Guide shows 2 different 1857 DDO.

The first is FS#1-002/Breen#1928/Snow-4.
The variety is a 2-O-I. On this one the obverse is doubled most noticably on
the eye, beak, tailfeathers, and the letters in USA with the spread on the
letters increasing from left to right. Value shown (1994) XF-$95 AU-$150

The second is FS#1-002.3 with no corresponding Breen or Snow numbers. The
variety is 3-O-I. Again, the doubling is most noticable on the eye, tail and
USA. It is not as strong as the previous example, and has only a slight
increase in value over "normal" coins.
