Buyers are drawn to this coin for its combination of genuine American numismatic history, recognizable Liberty obverse design, and a premium over spot that typically runs lower than what third-party certified or slabbed examples of the same coin command. Each coin is ungraded by a third-party service, with the specific year and mint mark varying — potential mints include Philadelphia, Carson City, Denver, New Orleans, and San Francisco.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"aaa-pdp__h\" style=\"font-size:18px;color:#023864;margin:22px 0 10px;border-bottom:2px solid #d4ae3b;padding-bottom:6px;display:inline-block;\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"aaa-pdp__specs\" style=\"list-style:none;padding:0;margin:0;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"display:flex;justify-content:space-between;gap:16px;padding:7px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;font-size:14.5px;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"k\" style=\"color:#6b7280;font-weight:600;\"\u003eMint Mark\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"v\" style=\"color:#1f2733;text-align:right;\"\u003eVaries\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"display:flex;justify-content:space-between;gap:16px;padding:7px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;font-size:14.5px;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"k\" style=\"color:#6b7280;font-weight:600;\"\u003ePurity\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"v\" style=\"color:#1f2733;text-align:right;\"\u003e.900\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"display:flex;justify-content:space-between;gap:16px;padding:7px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;font-size:14.5px;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"k\" style=\"color:#6b7280;font-weight:600;\"\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"v\" style=\"color:#1f2733;text-align:right;\"\u003ePhiladelphia, Carson City, Denver, New Orleans, or San Francisco\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"display:flex;justify-content:space-between;gap:16px;padding:7px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;font-size:14.5px;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"k\" style=\"color:#6b7280;font-weight:600;\"\u003eThickness\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"v\" style=\"color:#1f2733;text-align:right;\"\u003e1.59 mm\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"display:flex;justify-content:space-between;gap:16px;padding:7px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;font-size:14.5px;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"k\" style=\"color:#6b7280;font-weight:600;\"\u003eDiameter\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"v\" style=\"color:#1f2733;text-align:right;\"\u003e21.6 mm\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"display:flex;justify-content:space-between;gap:16px;padding:7px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;font-size:14.5px;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"k\" style=\"color:#6b7280;font-weight:600;\"\u003eSeries\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"v\" style=\"color:#1f2733;text-align:right;\"\u003e$5 Liberty Half Eagle (1795–1908)\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"display:flex;justify-content:space-between;gap:16px;padding:7px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;font-size:14.5px;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"k\" style=\"color:#6b7280;font-weight:600;\"\u003ePackaging Type\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"v\" style=\"color:#1f2733;text-align:right;\"\u003eProtective packaging; multiples of 40 in plastic tubes\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"display:flex;justify-content:space-between;gap:16px;padding:7px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;font-size:14.5px;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"k\" style=\"color:#6b7280;font-weight:600;\"\u003eMetal Weight\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"v\" style=\"color:#1f2733;text-align:right;\"\u003e0.2419 troy oz\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"display:flex;justify-content:space-between;gap:16px;padding:7px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;font-size:14.5px;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"k\" style=\"color:#6b7280;font-weight:600;\"\u003eDesign\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"v\" style=\"color:#1f2733;text-align:right;\"\u003eLiberty facing left with 13 stars and LIBERTY on hair band (obverse)\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"aaa-pdp__h\" style=\"font-size:18px;color:#023864;margin:22px 0 10px;border-bottom:2px solid #d4ae3b;padding-bottom:6px;display:inline-block;\"\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"aaa-pdp__faq\" style=\"margin:0;\"\u003e\n\u003cdt style=\"font-weight:700;color:#023864;margin:14px 0 4px;font-size:15px;\"\u003eWhat exactly is the Gold $5 Liberty AU?\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd style=\"margin:0 0 4px;color:#3a434f;line-height:1.55;font-size:14.5px;\"\u003eIt is an authentic pre-1933 United States $5 Half Eagle gold coin from the Liberty Head series (1795–1908), graded Almost Uncirculated (AU) but not encapsulated or certified by a third-party grading service.
