This example, bearing the 67.G. 21 carat standard and the RUTHERF inscription, reflects the Bechtlers’ evolving approach to fineness and weight. These pieces often saw heavy use, making higher-grade survivors especially elusive. The present coin’s Mint State preservation sets it apart from the typically encountered circulated examples.
Certified MS-61 by PCGS and approved by CAC, it is among a very small population at this level, with only a handful graded finer. Its combination of historical importance, regional character, and relative scarcity in Mint State makes it a compelling representative of early American gold coinage outside the federal system.
