Description

1815/2 50C O-101a, R.3, XF45 PCGS. The low mintage 1815/2 half dollar is key to a date collection of Capped Bust half dollars. Only one die pair is known, which shows traces of a 2 underdigit near the 5 in the date. There are two major die states, with and without an ascending crack through 50 C and the arrowheads. The present Choice XF example is from the later Overton die state, which also exhibits multiple sets of bold clash marks. The problem-free surfaces show pearl-white interiors framed by golden-brown and gunmetal-blue borders.
