Just purchased some beautiful jewelry today at a reasonable price. Was greeted and serviced promptly. I was in and out quickly and I love my new pieces. This was my first time here but it certainly won’t be my last! Thank you!

Simply a great experience. We are new to the area and like most people slightly apprehensive about the honesty and integrity of businesses that I have never dealt with before. Much to my pleasure this business represents a forthright manner of sincere principles that they use to conduct business. I would highly recommend them to everyone.

Details

The $5 Classic Head Half Eagle (1834–1838) is a rare Pre-33 U.S. gold coin containing 0.2419 oz of gold. With a short production run and historic design, it’s highly sought after by both collectors and investors.

The $5 Classic Head Half Eagle, struck from 1834 to 1838, is one of the shortest-lived U.S. gold coin series, making it highly desirable among collectors. Composed of 90% gold and containing 0.2419 troy ounces of pure gold, this coin carries both intrinsic bullion value and significant numismatic rarity.

The Classic Head design, created by William Kneass, features Liberty with a fillet inscribed “LIBERTY,” while the reverse displays a bold heraldic eagle. Due to its brief production run and low survival rates, these coins are considered scarce in all grades.

Coins offered are in varying collectible conditions, ranging from well-circulated examples that highlight their historical journey to more preserved pieces with stronger detail. Each coin provides investors and collectors a unique opportunity to own an authentic piece of early American gold coinage.

Key Details:

  • Minted: 1834–1838

  • Denomination: $5 Half Eagle

  • Metal Content: 90% Gold, 10% Copper

  • Actual Gold Weight (AGW): 0.2419 troy oz
