10 Rare Draped Bust Half Dollars

Not all silver coins went through the entire cycle; the dime and quarter were minted in only two varieties during the first decade. The first half dollar featured the so-called Flowing Hair motif.

The obverse had a young female figure with flowing hair behind her, while the reverse displayed a petite, spread-winged eagle surrounded by laurel branches.
