1815/2 O.101. Choice About Uncirculated, very close to Mint State. This example of the only variety of this scarce date displays substantial lustre on both sides and vivid multiple die clash on the reverse. One of only 47,150 struck in the wake of the War of 1812, the last Half Dollar coinage before the January 1816 fire at the U.S. Mint that damaged the rolling and coining equipment. NGC AU55.
