Introduction
The 1905 $5 Liberty Head CACG PR63 is a scarce proof Half Eagle struck for collectors rather than circulation. With its reflective fields, sharp detail, and CACG certification, this coin represents a high-quality example of early 20th-century American proof gold, offering both historical importance and refined eye appeal.
History
The Liberty Head Half Eagle series was designed by Christian Gobrecht and produced from 1839 through 1908. By 1905, proof gold coinage was issued in very limited numbers, primarily for collectors and institutions. These proofs were struck with special care at the Philadelphia Mint, making surviving examples particularly desirable within the classic U.S. gold series.
Design
The obverse features Lady Liberty wearing a coronet inscribed with LIBERTY, encircled by thirteen stars and the date. The reverse displays a heraldic eagle with shield, olive branch, and arrows, symbolizing national strength and unity. The proof finish enhances the depth of the design, highlighting crisp details and mirrored surfaces characteristic of elite early proof gold coinage.
