1799 Capped Bust Right Half Eagle. BD-1. Rarity-5+. Small Stars Reverse. EF Details--Repaired (PCGS).A rather pleasing example, we note warm honey-gold patina and ample boldness of detail for both sides. Numerous wispy handling marks are evident, but the PCGS qualifier primarily concerns an attempted puncture and associated tooling in the left reverse field. We are pleased to be offering several scarce to rare die marriages from the Capped Bust Right half eagle in this sale, the 1799 BD-1 offered here one of perhaps just 35 to 45 coins extant in all grades (per Dannreuther, 2006). BD Die State b/d.
