Description

The $5 Gold Indian Head Half Eagle is among the most celebrated and unique coins in American history. Introduced in 1908, its design by sculptor Bela Lyon Pratt broke from tradition with an innovative incuse relief—where the design is sunken below the coin’s surface rather than raised. The obverse depicts Liberty wearing a Native American headdress, while the reverse features a majestic bald eagle, symbols of strength and national pride. Struck in 90% gold and 10% copper, the coin weighs 8.36 grams and measures 21.6 mm in diameter. Produced until 1929, the Indian Head Half Eagle is admired for its artistry, rarity, and role as a bold departure in U.S. coin design.
