Variety Attribution: Obverse-1824 over 1. 1 shows near top of 4 on each side. Stars large and sharp. Date is a close 7 3/4 mm. with large 4 over 1. Serif of the overcut 1 shows at left and edge of stand at right of the top of 4. 2 and 4 nearly touch and are much closer than 182. This is the only 24 over 1 found, although two other varieties are often mistaken for over 1, but are actually over miscut 4's. At this state, the overdate is not very distinguishable, especially on worn specimens.

Reverse- 50 C. is large and widely spaced 2 3/4 mm. Arrow to A nearly touch. Right sides of T-I in line. Center dot on crossbar 4 but mostly between 3 and 4. Letters of legend all well separated. Small die dot between scroll and eagle's head under U.

Notes:
According to Edgar Souders, he estimates that the projected mintage for this overdate is approximately 412,347. This includes both O-101 and O-102. Get his book Bust Half Fever and read all about overdates and how he came up with the number!
