The Capped Bust Right BD-6 marriage is among the more readily available varieties of the date, though still no more than 80-100 examples are thought to remain (per John Dannreuther, 2006). Easily identified by repunching to the digit 1 and 0 in the date, near Mint State examples of this variety are always in demand among both type collectors and early gold enthusiasts. Most early U.S. gold coins were exported and melted, since the silver-to-gold ratio was then lower in the United States than in European countries. This is an excellent coin to add to your collection.
