The Liberty Head Half Eagle, minted from 1839 to 1908, is a five-dollar gold coin that features a design by Christian Gobrecht. The 1851 version, specifically, was minted at the Dahlonega Mint, known for producing gold coins during the Georgia gold rush era. Dahlonega coins are particularly sought after by collectors due to their lower mintage and historical significance, making them valuable additions to any numismatic collection. The obverse depicts Liberty in a classic depiction, while the reverse features an eagle, embodying the national emblem of the United States.
