The Liberty Head Half Eagle is a five-dollar gold coin that was minted in the United States from 1839 to 1908. The 1906 edition was produced at the San Francisco Mint, known for its quality coinage. Featuring a classic design by engraver James B. Longacre, the obverse displays a profile of Lady Liberty, while the reverse depicts an eagle with a shield. Collectors value these coins for their historical significance, gold content, and condition, with the San Francisco mint issues being particularly sought after due to lower mintages compared to other years.
