1805 Capped Bust Right Quarter Eagle. BD-1, the only known dies. Rarity-4. VF Details--Cleaned (PCGS). Well centered in strike with all major design elements boldly outlined, this more affordable mid grade early $2.50 allows full appreciation of the classic Capped Bust Right design. Deep olive undertones backlight warmer reddish-gold color. All early quarter eagles are rare, the denomination unpopular with contemporary gold bullion depositors and seeing limited mintages. Only 1,781 examples were struck for the 1805, and survivors number no more than 150 or so coins in all grades. BD Die State c/b. PCGS# 7653. NGC ID: BFVV.
