The Classic Head Half Eagle is a gold coin produced by the United States Mint from 1834 to 1839, featuring a design by Chief Engraver William Kneass. The 1815 version, while not a Half Eagle, belongs to an earlier series; the typical denomination for that year is the gold $5 coin. The Classic Head design showcases a bust of Liberty on the obverse, while the reverse displays an eagle with a shield. Collectors value these coins for their historical significance, rarity, and gold content, making them an integral part of American numismatic history.
