Each 1899 Pre-33 $5 Liberty Gold Half Eagle Coin available here comes in Mint State 64 condition. Coins at this grade level exhibit quite an attractive eye appeal with average mint luster. Several small contact marks are possible in groups, with one or two moderate marks also present. Hairlines are commonly present in one or two small patches.
The 1899 Liberty Half Eagle was struck at Philadelphia with a mintage of 1,710,630 coins, one of the higher production figures of the late 1890s and a reflection of the robust demand for gold coinage during a period of strong economic growth and expanding American commerce. The 1899 Philadelphia issue is well represented in circulated grades, making it an accessible choice for collectors seeking a quality late-series Liberty Half Eagle. Its generous mintage and consistent strike quality make the 1899 a reliable and attractive representative of the Liberty Head series at its mature, confident best.
The obverse of the 1899 Liberty Gold Half Eagle Coin features a left-facing bust of Lady Liberty wearing a coronet inscribed with LIBERTY. Thirteen stars surround the portrait, representing the original colonies, with the date below. The design originated with Christian Gobrecht and was later refined by James B. Longacre in 1839.
The reverse of the 1899 Pre-33 $5 Liberty Half Eagle Coins includes a heraldic eagle with a shield across its chest. The eagle holds arrows and an olive branch, with UNITED STATES OF AMERICA above and FIVE D below. The addition of IN GOD WE TRUST in 1866 reflects a post-Civil War design change.
