Draped Bust Half Cents were minted in the United States from 1796 to 1807, with the 1805 issue being notable among collectors. These coins feature a portrait of Liberty draped in a stylized cloth on the obverse and a simple wreath on the reverse. The 1805 Draped Bust Half Cent is particularly sought after due to its historical significance and relatively low mintage, making it a desirable item for numismatists and collectors of early American currency. The five-dollar denomination, commonly referred to as a "five-dollar gold piece," is part of U.S. coinage history featuring varying designs, but it should not be confused with the half cent denomination.
