5 Dollar Gold Coin
5 Dollar Gold Coin
Students of American minting history will note that silver and gold coins arrived relatively late on the scene. This is mainly due to a piece of legislation requiring the Assayer and the Chief Coiner to place a bond of $10,000 before creating such coins. Unfortunately, the first men to hold this position were not able to put up the necessary money, so they had to wait for the required amount to be lowered before coins like the Half Eagle could be made.

The Half Eagle was worth $5, known as 5 dollar gold coin. The first one was called the Turban Head Half Eagle Small Eagle, and was designed by Robert Scot. The Liberty on its obverse wore a turban, fashionable among ladies of the time. The reverse side design showed a relatively slim, small eagle perched on a branch, wings outstretched, and holding a wreath in its beak. This type of 5 dollar gold coin is quite rare today. The Capped Bust, Heraldic Eagle type, which was very similar, except for a larger, stronger-looking eagle, succeeded it.

A German immigrant called John Reich designed the next Half Eagles. He created the Capped Bust style, in which Liberty faced right and wore a mobcap instead of a turban. His obverse 5 dollar gold coin design was slightly revised in 1813, moving the stars and showing Liberty only from the neck up, forming the Capped Head style.

These coins are quite rare, because many of them were melted down for people after their gold content. Early Half Eagles were also made before laws were passed to decrease the gold in order to discourage profiteering.

When the first gold coins were minted in the United States, they quickly fell victim to people who wanted to capitalize on their intrinsic value. Therefore, after the first third of the 19th century, the gold content of these coins was reduced in order to discourage such practices. The Classic Head Half Eagle is part of this new breed of 5 dollar gold coin.

Designed by William Kneass, the coin was made of a combination of gold and copper. The left-facing Liberty on the obverse had strong, almost masculine features. Her hair was kept in place by a headband with the word “liberty” written on it. The other side of 5 dollar gold coin showed a relatively small eagle, which bore a shield, and carried arrows and an olive branch. This eagle was thought to look too weak to be an appropriate national symbol, and was a source of criticism. Actually, the Classic Head Half Eagles saw many minor revisions throughout their production, which is why so many varieties exist to choose from. This 5 dollar gold coin is quite popular or sought-after among collectors. Firstly, it is quite rare because it continued to be passed around for many years after it stopped being minted, which is why you cannot count on huge government or private stockpiles. In addition, there is a range of prices. The very good examples may only be accessible to very wealthy collectors, but people on a more average budget will still be able to invest in coins with lower ratings.

The Coronet Half Eagle was designed by Christian Gobrecht, and have one of the longest life-spans among American gold coins. Its obverse side shows Liberty facing to the left, surrounded by stars representing the states. She wears her hair tied in a bun by a string of beads, and held back from her face with a coronet on which is written the word “liberty.” The reverse side of the coin shows an eagle very similar to that on the coin’s predecessor. However, Gobrecht widened the wingspan slightly to make for an image of an eagle that would be more acceptable to a patriotic public.
The 5 dollar gold coin also experienced some changes in its design over its life span, some of which were due to socio-cultural shifts in American life. For instance, he hardships and destruction of the Civil War helped fuel a rise in religious feeling. This was reflected in a law passed in 1865 that required “In God We Trust” to be placed on all American coins. Thus, all Coronet Half Eagles made in 1866 and onwards have this motto stamped on them. James Longacre, who was to be an influential figure himself in American minting, was in charge of revising the coin’s design to include this motto.
The rarity and value of 5 dollar gold coin varies widely from minting year to minting year. For instance, coins minted from 1878 to 1882 are relatively common, because national mints created more coins due to a policy that then allowed people to exchange their paper money for metal coins.

Bela Lyon Pratt designed the Indian Half Eagle. The same design was also used concurrently on the Quarter Eagle coin. Pratt’s design was quite unusual, even by modern perspectives. These unique qualities made the coin unpopular in its own time, but attractive to collectors today.
First of all, the coin’s main design features (the Native American chief on the obverse and the eagle on the back) are recessed into the metal, instead of standing out of a flat background, as they normally do. This looks quite innovative to modern eyes, but at the time prevented the coin from stacking easily, and also made people anxious that dirt (and therefore disease) might collect in the recesses and be passed along. Despite widespread criticism rooted in causes both reasonable and unreasonable, production of this coin pushed through, largely because of the personal support of President Theodore Roosevelt. In the end, it took the Great Depression, that phenomenon that revolutionized monetary and fiscal policy the world over, to stop the production of this coin, the last of the surprisingly resilient $5 Half Eagle coins.
If you are interested in owning a coin that is fundamentally different from others, look no further. The Half Eagle and Quarter Eagle designed by Pratt were so unusual that people simply did not know how to handle them. However, you, as a collector, will not be needing to handle these coins for transaction, so you can enjoy their artistic merit and innovation without having to worry about any practical disadvantages.
This coin had a sadly short life-span, so one might have a hard time finding “key year” coins to invest in. Even so, there are some Indian Half Eagles that are a particularly good investment, based on their price trends over several decades.
