The 1806 Knob 6, No Stem O-108 Bust Half dollar is considered to be extremely rare in the Draped Bust half Dollar series. Walter Breen, who discovered this rare type said that the O-108 was an easily attributed “naked eye type” and it was as notable as the 1817/4 overdate.

Clouds six and seven show typical softness. Dentilation is weak on the right reverse rim. Liberty’s hair ends are visible with interior details which are intact.
