About this product
Ex-Jewelry $5 Liberty Head Half Eagle, Gold Content With a Past
The $5 Liberty Head half eagle ex jewelry listing covers a pre-1933 U.S. Mint gold coin with 0.2419 troy ounce of actual gold in a .900 fine alloy that was previously used in jewelry. Ex-jewelry coins may show scratches, polishing or holes from mounting, and the date and mint are chosen at random from available supply.
The Coronet Head Across Seven Mints
The Liberty Head design, also called the Coronet Head, was used on the half eagle from 1839 to 1908 and was the work of Mint engraver Christian Gobrecht. Liberty faces left with her hair in a bun tied with beaded strings and a coronet reading LIBERTY, ringed by 13 stars. The reverse heraldic eagle, inspired by the Great Seal of the United States, holds an olive branch and arrows. This design was struck at seven mints: Philadelphia, Carson City, Charlotte, Dahlonega, Denver, New Orleans and San Francisco.
