Struck in .900 fine gold with a total weight of 0.2419 troy oz, this coin carries both historic value and investment appeal. Each coin has been authenticated and graded Mint State 61 (MS 61) by PCGS, ensuring original mint luster and light handling marks consistent with its grade.
History of the Liberty Head Half Eagle
The Liberty Head Half Eagle, designed by Christian Gobrecht, was first minted in 1839 and continued until 1908, making it one of the longest-running designs in U.S. gold coinage. The obverse depicts Lady Liberty wearing a coronet inscribed with “LIBERTY,” framed by 13 stars representing the original colonies. The reverse features a powerful heraldic eagle clutching arrows and an olive branch, symbolizing America’s strength in war and peace.
This coin circulated during transformative chapters in U.S. history—from the California Gold Rush and the Civil War to the dawn of the 20th century. After President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s Gold Recall Act of 1933, most circulating gold coins were melted down, making pre-1933 U.S. gold survivors like this Half Eagle far scarcer today.
