1/2 oz Gold Coins

Half-ounce gold coins occupy a practical middle ground in the gold coin market, offering the same sovereign minting pedigree as their one-ounce counterparts at a lower per-coin price point. This collection features .999 and .9167 fine gold coins from some of the world's most recognized government mints, including the United States Mint, the South African Mint, the Royal Canadian Mint, the Royal Mint of the United Kingdom, and the Mexican Casa de Moneda.

Each series in this category carries its own design legacy. The Gold American Eagle, struck in 22-karat (.9167) gold, features Augustus Saint-Gaudens' classic Liberty obverse paired with a family-of-eagles reverse. The Gold Krugerrand — the coin that defined the modern bullion market — is also 22-karat and carries the portrait of Paul Kruger alongside a springbok antelope. The Gold Canadian Maple Leaf and Gold Britannia are both struck in .9999 fine gold, bearing their respective national emblems. The Mexican 20 Pesos, a pre-decimal classic, contains .4823 troy oz of gold at .900 fineness and features the Aztec Sun Stone — a beloved numismatic piece with deep historical roots.

At Lone Star Coins, this collection spans random-year examples of each major series, priced against the live spot market and available in our San Antonio showroom for walk-in purchase or nationwide shipping. Buyers looking for smaller fractional options may also want to browse our 1/4 oz and 1/10 oz Gold Coin collections, while those seeking full-ounce coins will find a broad selection in our 1 oz Gold Coins category.
