Description
The 1867 Liberty Head Half Eagle is a Gold Half Eagle produced at the Philadelphia Mint as part of the Liberty Head Half Eagles 1839-1908 series. With a mintage of 6,870, this is an extremely rare issue — the lower-mintage of the two mint variants.

First full year with the motto. Half eagles struck at Philadelphia and San Francisco. Struck at the original U.S. Mint facility, in continuous operation since 1792. Estimated market value ranges from $1.8K to $15K depending on grade and condition. Struck in 90% gold, 10% copper, weighing 8.36 grams, 21.65 mm in diameter, with a reeded edge. Cataloged as PCGS #8313.
