The Liberty Head Half Eagle, a five-dollar gold coin, was minted by the United States from 1839 to 1908. The 1871 issue is particularly notable as it was struck at the Carson City Mint, which produced a limited number of coins, making these pieces highly sought after by collectors. The coin features a depiction of Liberty on the obverse and an eagle on the reverse, characteristic of the design during that era. Its historical significance and rarity contribute to its value in the numismatic market.
