(1835-37) G$2 1/2 C. Bechtler 64 GR, 22C, Uneven, K-11

Coin / United States of America / G$2 1/2 / C. Bechtler / 1835 / Carolina

The Kagin-11 is the earlier of two GEORGIA GOLD, 22 carat quarter eagles, and shares its reverse die with the K-13 (and all other pill-style Bechtler $2 1/2s). The 22 on the obverse is punched into the die with the first 2 in 22 lower, and rotated about 10 degrees clockwise, creating a somewhat haphazard appearance. With 40 examples known, the Kagin-11 is the most available Bechtler $2 1/2, but only by a narrow margin. Around ten examples are known in mint state.
