- Rare and Desirable 1821 Capped Head Left Quarter Eagle 1821 Capped Head Left Quarter Eagle. BD-1, the only known dies. Rarity-5. AU-55 (NGC). This is one of the toughest type coins to find at all, as there are so few known today. While the recorded mintage of 6,448 pieces implies scarcity, it does not tell the whole picture. Totals today range in the 40 to 60 pieces known in all grades, as the balance of this issue was melted long ago and do not exist today. Handsome yellow-gold surfaces with minimal nicks and scuffs that blend well into the fields and devices. Liberty's hair shows strong definition on her tiny curls. Similar on the eagle where his wing feathers are sharp along with the scroll and legends. A rare type coin that has always commanded collector attention. PCGS# 7662. NGC Census: 1; 14 finer (Mint State-66 finest) for the date.
