Liberty Seated Half Dollars were minted in the United States from 1839 to 1891, featuring a design by engraver Christian Gobrecht.

These coins, composed of 90% silver, are popular among collectors for their historical significance and artistic design, with the 1865 date marking a period of transition in U.S. coinage.
