Jean Elsen sale 149, lot 1889

This specimen was lot 1889 in Jean Elsen sale 149 (Brussels, December 2021), where it sold for €420 (about US$569 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,

"NORVEGE, Oscar Ier (1844-1859), AR 1/2 speciedaler, 1850. Petits coups sur la tranche. presque Très Beau. (kingdom of Norway, Oscar I, 1844-59, silver half speciedaler of 1850. Small rim nicks, about Very Fine.)"
