The Liberty Head Half Eagle, a five-dollar gold coin, was minted in the United States from 1839 to 1908. The 1843 Liberty Head Half Eagle is particularly notable as it was struck at the New Orleans Mint, one of the key minting facilities in the U.S. during that era. These coins feature a classic design with Liberty's head on the obverse and an eagle on the reverse, making them popular among collectors due to their historical significance and gold content. The 1843 variant is particularly sought after, reflecting its age and the limited mintage associated with the New Orleans Mint.
