The Pattern 5 Dollars "1795 Half Eagle" (Pattern) 1795 from United States made of Copper is a rare and unique coin that was never officially minted or circulated. It was created as a pattern coin, which means it was produced as a prototype or sample for a potential coin design, but it was ultimately rejected or not adopted for production. As a result, only a small number of these coins were made, making them highly sought after by collectors.
