General Notes: Like his father, Augustus Bechtler issued half eagles in three grades of fineness: 20, 21, and 22 carats, although he did away with Christopher Bechtler’s GEORGIA GOLD appellation for the 22-carat pieces. The most commonly encountered A. Bechtler $5 variety is the 134-grain, 21-carat, with around 40 known examples, most of which grade XF or AU. Only two examples have graded mint state, although a strong argument can be made that the finest known Kagin-27 half eagle resides in an AU58 holder.
NGC ID: 2B9Y
