The 1872 Philadelphia Liberty Head Half Eagle is recognized as one of the rarest business-strike issues of the post-Civil War era. With an original mintage of just 1,660 coins, it holds the distinction of being the lowest-mintage Philadelphia Half Eagle produced for circulation during the Liberty Head series, making it a true rarity among nineteenth-century U.S. gold coins.
