Design and Specifications of the 1819 Half Dollar
The 1819 Half Dollar is part of the Capped Bust series, which was minted from 1807 to 1839. This coin represents a significant period in early American coinage, as it was produced during the formative years of the United States Mint. The Capped Bust design, created by German-born engraver John Reich, was a departure from the earlier Draped Bust design and symbolized a more mature and confident young nation.

Rarity Factors and Value Drivers
Condition plays a crucial role in determining the value of 1819 Half Dollars. Coins in higher grades (XF45 and above) are particularly desirable and command significant premiums. The strike quality can vary, with some examples showing weakness in certain areas, particularly on the eagle's wings and claws.
Original luster is highly prized in uncirculated specimens, while attractive, natural toning can also enhance a coin's appeal and value. Coins with minimal contact marks and sharp details on Liberty's hair and the eagle's feathers are especially sought after by collectors.
Mintage: 2,208,000
Rarity Scale: Scarce
Circulation Status: Limited Circulation
Preservation Rarity: Rare in grades MS65 and above
Varieties Errors: 1819/8 Overdate, 1819 Small 9
Market Demand: High, especially for well-preserved specimens
The 1819/8 Overdate variety is particularly valuable and rare, often commanding a significant premium over the regular issue. The 1819 Small 9 variety is also notable and can carry a premium, though less so than the overdate.
Historical significance adds to the appeal of this coin, as it was minted during the Era of Good Feelings under President James Monroe's administration. Additionally, as a pre-1836 issue, these coins were struck on the older screw press, which can result in slight variations in strike quality, potentially adding to their collectible interest.
The overall scarcity of high-grade examples makes the 1819 Half Dollar a popular choice for type set collectors and early American coin enthusiasts, further driving demand and value in the numismatic market.
