Details
The silver content is .8924. In January 2013 a copy was auctioned at Stack's Bowers for just over $ 10 million in quality Specimen 66 with a unique obverse / reverse combination (B-1 / BB-1) with a very early strike stamped BB-1 and with silver plug. As a result, this coin is currently the most expensive in the world. See: http://stacksbowers.com/Auctions/AuctionLot.aspx?LotID=433605

Het zilvergehalte is .8924.
In januari 2013 is een exemplaar geveild bij Stack's Bowers voor iets meer dan 10 miljoen dollar in de kwaliteit Specimen 66 met een unieke voorzijde/keerzijde-combinatie (B-1/BB-1) met een zeer vroege slag met stempel BB-1 en met zilveren plug. Daardoor is deze munt momenteel de duurste ter wereld.
