In the year 1829, the pattern of the half eagle with Capped Head was customized a little by William Kneass for accommodating latest machinery in the Mint. The borders at present consisted of rounds of beads within the raised rim. The main design fundamentals remained the similar; however the stars, dates, as well as lettering became smaller.
Scarcity in that series includes this 1829 Small Date (contrast to the first Large Date as well as Large Diameter coin) in addition to the 1832 with just twelve stars on the face. In 1834, diversity appears by either a Plain otherwise Crosslet four in the date. Every examples of this kind were produced in the Philadelphia Mint. Mintage was relatively great (more than 125,000 coins), however survivors are extremely rare. A small amount of Proofs were prepared however they seldom come into view on the market as well as are extremely valuable.
Designer was John Reich. Reeded edge. Standards: mass, 8.75 grams; composition, gold 91.67% or 8.33% silver as well as copper; 23.8 mm diameter.
