*Values are for coins grading Very Fine 20 unless otherwise stated.Ĭollectors should bear in mind that the mintage figures listed above do not equate to modern-day population figures. Here’s a breakdown of the mintages and values of 1885 $5 Liberty Head half eagle gold coins: While the Carson City Mint wasn’t in the picture in regards to half eagles during 1885, the total production of $5 gold coins between the Philadelphia and San Francisco mints was still higher than the overall output of half eagles during 18 combined.
1885 Liberty Head half eagles were produced at only two mints, which include those in Philadelphia and San Francisco (S).
