1802/1 Capped Bust Right Half Eagle. BD-2. Rarity-4+. Centered Overdate.

1802/1 Capped Bust Right Half Eagle. BD-2. Rarity-4+. Centered Overdate. AU Details--Test Cut (PCGS). BD Die State c/c. The mintage of approximately 53,176 half eagles struck bearing the 1802 date used two obverse dies and seven reverse dies paired in eight known die marriages. Both obverse dies bear the 1802/1 overdate with the Centered Overdate variety not as challenging to find as the High Overdate. Around 5,000 to 7,500 pieces are thought to have been struck with the Bass-Dannreuther 2 pairing and, with 75 to 100 coins believed extant (per John W. Dannreuther, 2006), it is tied with BD-1 in terms of overall availability. With a test cut on the edge outside obverse star 2, this more affordable AU survivor holds particular appeal for budget-minded type purposes. PCGS# 8083. NGC ID: 25NX.
