 * Reason:High quality, high EV (presented as a complete set). The Half Eagle $5 gold coin was authorized by Congress in 1792, stuck in mid-1795, and was the first gold coin produced by the United States. In production for 134 years (1795–1929), five designers/engravers executed eight different design types. In addition, two excessively rare varieties are presented.
 * Original:A complete typeset (10 coins) of eight Half eagle gold $5 coins and two additional excessively rare major varieties from 1795 to 1929. The diameter of a Half eagle ranges from 25mm (roughly the size of a current issue U.S.quarter) to 21.6mm (roughly the size of a current issue U.S. nickel).

 * Support no, not eagles! Monkeys! Is there a date range for the Turban Head or is it solely 1797? And I think somebody made off with the gold from the "gold" 1822 Capped Head. Belle (talk) 12:49, 25 September 2015 (UTC)
