The Liberty Head Half Eagle, a five-dollar gold coin, was minted in the United States from 1839 to 1908. The 1857 issue, specifically from the Dahlonega Mint, is noteworthy due to its limited mintage and historical significance, as the Dahlonega Mint primarily produced gold coins during the California Gold Rush era. These coins typically feature an obverse design of Lady Liberty and a reverse with an eagle, reflecting the artistic styles of the period. Collectors often seek the 1857 Dahlonega Half Eagle for its rarity and connection to America's gold mining history.
