Description
The copper companion to J-1337, this half eagle pattern renders the Liberty Head $5 design in warm ungilded base metal. Copper half eagle patterns from the final year of the Trade Dollar era represent the concluding chapter in a three-year comprehensive survey of America's gold denominations in non-gold compositions. The warmth of the copper at the half eagle's generous diameter creates an especially attractive piece.
