1806 Capped Bust Right Half Eagle. BD-1. Rarity-4. Pointed 6, Stars 8x5. MS-62 (PCGS). CAC.A vibrant yellow-gold example bathed in satiny mint luster across each side. The slight softness at the centers is typical of these dies, and traces of planchet adjustment remain visible across these lightly struck regions. The definition is bold and uniform at the borders, where evidence of die fatigue is apparent. Light cracks connect the first 8 stars on the obverse while the reverse sports a bisecting crack that traverses the die diagonally through the eagles beak and the field of stars, in addition to a cud above the final S of STATES. Attractive and technically choice for the assigned grade. A speck of dark toning below the I of UNITED provides a convenient pedigree marker for tracing this piece through future cabinets. pOne of five Pointed 6 varieties of the date, with BD-1 estimated to account for about 100 to 150 pieces in all grades. While 1806 is one of the most commonly encountered dates among the early half eagles, this is due to the more common Round 6 variant which appeared in John Dannreuthers survey of auction appearances (1990-2005) more than three times as often than all varieties of the Pointed 6 coins combined. The Pointed 6 examples are scarcer as a class, and some are very rare. This obverse die was used on both BD-1, and BD-2 coins, and cracked during its first use but not extensively enough to remove it from use. The reverse of this marriage is interesting as the first one among the early half eagles to feature 13 arrows in the eagles talon, a characteristic that continued through the end of the series.
