- 1801 Draped Bust Half Dollar. O-101, T-2. Rarity-2. VG-8 (PCGS).
Blended pewter-gray and olive-russet patina is bolder on the reverse, the obverse with a few glints of charcoal-copper arcing through the center. All major devices are bold, the overall design fully appreciable and the attribution easily confirmed. After a four year hiatus, half dollar production resumed in 1801 with Scot's Draped Bust obverse and Heraldic Eagle reverse. A single obverse die was paired with two reverse dies to strike all of the 30,289 pieces in three separate deliveries on August 14, December 1, and finally on December 26. Second only to the 1802 in terms of limited number coined, the 1801 is of roughly equivalent rarity - perhaps somewhat more frequently encountered, but only marginally so. Tompkins Die Stage 3/3.
Provenance: From the Collection of James Allaire Millholland, 1842-1911.
