Capped Bust Lettered Edge Half Dollars were minted in the United States from 1807 to 1839, with the 1825 coins being particularly noteworthy. These half dollars feature a distinctive design of Liberty with a capped head on the obverse and a heraldic eagle on the reverse. The "lettered edge," which includes inscriptions like "FIFTY CENTS" and "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," distinguishes these coins from other types. Collectors often seek these pieces for their historical significance and the aesthetic appeal of their detailed artwork. The 1825 edition, in particular, is sought after for its limited mintage and the condition of surviving examples.
