Capped Bust Half Eagles are U.S. gold coins that were minted from 1813 to 1834. They feature the Capped Bust design on the obverse, depicting Liberty with a cap, while the reverse illustrates an eagle with a shield. The denomination of these coins is five dollars. Most Capped Bust Half Eagles were produced at the Philadelphia Mint, and they are collectible due to their historical significance and the relatively low mintage of certain years, including the 1812 issue, which adds to their rarity and value among numismatists.
