Java. British Administration gold 1/2 Rupee AH 1231 (1816) UNC Details (Cleaned) NGC, KM248a, Scholten-591, Fr-15. Extremely rare. An alluring example of this scarce type showing fully-struck details. The planchet exhibits a couple of moderate cracks, which in this case add a fitting feel of age and originality. Light hairlines reveal a past cleaning, though the surfaces remain quite attractive otherwise.
