KM#377.4, Durango mint. While not particularly rare, the overmintmark and corrected assayer conspire to create a very popular entry into the 8-reales series, this also being an outstanding example. Highest grade previously seen by the cataloger was AU-55, although the population report shows about a handful of other AU-58 - MS-62 examples. This one appears fully original and sports very strong die clashes, as well as an identifiable silvery streak down left of center on the obverse.

Half Dollars-Capped Bust, Lettered Edge
O-101, prime dies. There is no evidence of clashed dies for this famous key to the series. Scarcity for the date can be explained by the one-day delivery of the entire mintage -- 47-thousand -- on January 10,1816 which was the day immediately preceding a major fire at the Mint. The mint was not operational again for practically the rest of the year. One might not state that the surfaces for this sharp example are entirely original as some glossy tan texture shows, interspersed with purple and neon-violet peripheral accents, but the coin suffers no damage nor distracting issues. Individual feathers within the eagle's right (observed) wing are nicely outlined while a few feathers in the left wing merge just slightly.
