Up for Auction is an 1882 $5.00 Half Eagle Gold Coin. This coin is at least XF and close to AU in my opinion. The obverse features LadyLiberty whose tight bun of hair is adorned with a string of beads. A coronet inscribed with the word "LIBERTY" rests on top of her head. The date and one star for each of the 13 original colonies encircle Liberty's portrait. The reverse features a proud bald eagle with wings spread, standing among olive branches. The eagle clinches three arrows in his talons, and has a shield featuring stars and stripes upon his chest. The words "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" and the denomination (Five D) surround the eagle. The motto "IN GOD WE TRUST" is on a ribbon above the eagle.
