Numismatists have identified six die varieties of 1806 half eagles, five of them show a Pointed 6 in the date and the sixth has a Round Top 6. The 2021 Guide Book lists the mintage for all the Pointed 6 varieties as 9,676 pieces, while the single Round Top 6 variety has a large production total of 54,417 examples. This coin represents the BD-1 Pointed 6 variety, with stars 1 and 2 close to the curl, and imperfect T’s on the reverse. The BD-1 has a surviving population of 100-150 specimens in all grades and probably accounted for 6,000-8,000 pieces of the reported mintage. When tilted slightly, this coin is quite a bit lighter in hue (and less orange) than seen in the images. The PCGS population stands at 14 with 4 higher.
