The Classic Head Half Eagle is a gold coin that was minted in the United States from 1834 to 1839, with a design featuring a classic representation of Liberty on the obverse and an eagle on the reverse. The 1813 issue of this denomination is significant as it falls within the earlier history of U.S. gold coinage. Although not a Classic Head design, it is important to note that the five-dollar denomination, or half eagle, was first authorized in 1792. Coins minted in Philadelphia, which was the nation's capital at the time, often hold added historical value to collectors.
