Here's an interesting aside for collectors: Did you know that the Liberty head half eagle was the only coin to be struck at every single U.S. mint? So, if you would like to put together a type set of Liberty head $5 half eagles, then a great project would be to acquire one of each minted in Philadelphia, Charlotte, Dahlonega, New Orleans, San Francisco, Carson City, and Denver! Imagine putting together that unique set of seven coins from seven different mints. Wouldn't that be a great numismatic accomplishment? And a great Philadelphia example is available here at AUCM, waiting for you to claim it as your own.
