Draped Bust Half Cents are a specific type of U.S. coin that were minted from 1800 to 1808, featuring a design by renowned engraver Robert Scott. The obverse depicts a bust of Lady Liberty draped in a flowing garment, while the reverse features a simple wreath surrounding the denomination. The series includes coins with varying mintages, making certain dates particularly collectible. The three-dollar gold coins, also known as "Princess" coins, were issued from 1854 to 1889, primarily as a means for gold to circulate in the economy, and are notable for their unique denomination and design. Collectors value both types for their historical significance and artistic merit.
