From a colt forum a post from 2010:

This is the correct information. There were a total of 1200 Boa's made. The first 200 were sold as sets (consecutive serial numbers being one 4" and one 6") with a beautifull presentation case. The remaining 1000 were the same. The even and odd numbers were either the 4" or 6" respectively and sold separately. They are very rare on today's market as us snake handlers fill our collections with them. They bring big money. A single Boa NIB is worth in the neighborhood of $4000 depending on the presentation (if on the internet) etc. They are finished in Colt's beautifull Royal Blue and are a great gun to admire.
