Draped Bust Half Eagles are collectible gold coins issued by the United States Mint from 1795 to 1807. The 1806 Draped Bust Half Eagle, valued at five dollars, features a portrait of Liberty on the obverse and an eagle with a shield on the reverse. This coin is notable for its design by artist Robert Scott and is a favored piece among numismatists due to its historical significance and limited mintage. It reflects the early American attempts to create a distinct national coinage during the formative years of the United States.
