This specimen was lot 1017 in Stephen Album sale 43 (Santa Rosa, CA, May 2022), where it sold for $1,020. The catalog description[1] noted, "SUMATRA: AE 2 kepings, AH1251, reverse die cracks, lustrous, two-year type, a wonderful example! PCGS graded MS63 BN, ex Joe Sedillot Collection." In 1815, the British returned Sumatra and Java to the Dutch at the Congress of Vienna. In exchange, the British retained Singapore and made it their main base in the East Indies. This type was struck AH 1247 and AH 1251 and is common in worn condition. It was probably made in Birmingham by Boulton and Watt.
Recorded mintage: unknown.
Specification: copper, 22.5 mm diameter.
