Here’s an exciting collecting option to consider. The Liberty Head half eagles were the only US coins to be produced at every one of our mints. How about creating a type set of these $5 gold pieces? It would be fun and interesting to take the time to put together a set of Liberty Head half eagles by acquiring one each that was produced in Philadelphia, Charlotte, Dahlonega, New Orleans, San Francisco, Carson City, and Denver.

Imagine putting together that special set of seven gold coins from those seven historic US mints. Wouldn’t that be a rewarding achievement? And the perfect piece from the Philadelphia Mint is being offered by AUCM, waiting for you to claim as your own.
