Capped Bust Lettered Edge Half Dollars were minted in the United States, primarily between 1807 and 1839, with the 1828 issue being notable for its design. These coins feature a depiction of Lady Liberty wearing a capped bust on the obverse, while the reverse showcases an eagle. The "lettered edge" refers to the inscription along the coin's edge, which serves both a decorative and anti-counterfeiting purpose. These collectible half dollars are sought after by numismatists due to their historical significance, artistic design, and relative rarity in high grades.
