The Capped Bust Half Eagle is a five-dollar gold coin produced by the United States Mint from 1807 to 1834. The obverse features a portrait of Lady Liberty with a cap, while the reverse displays an eagle with a shield. The 1808 issue, struck in Philadelphia, is particularly significant as it is one of the rarest dates in the series, with limited mintage. These coins are valued not only for their gold content but also for their historical importance and rarity among collectors.
