"If it's a penny for your thoughts and you put in your two cents worth, then someone...somewhere...is making a penny." - Steven Wright
I know this is a love or hate one in my experience.
But this is my favorite coin design of all time.
As someone who got my career started in graphic design, I love this minimalism.
By the way, on the American Innovation Dollars this is the obverse.

While a very neat representation of astrology, the engraver was either an amateur or deep in happy hour.

Terry, this looks like a cousin to your 1806. Also a PCGS F12.

I got a 1877 as well that I picked up raw in 1995 for $200 raw. Xf 40 and its somewhere, glad I hung onto it
Loved @drddm obverse of a Capped Bust Half. That is such a great year and Die Marriage Dave!
When it comes to the CBH's, @dipset512 posted a great reverse, but I am partial to the first design for the series, found on 1807 and 1808 only

That one is inspiring @Catbert and distracting me from my work.
It's a Bird of Paradise from Papua new Guinea.. German Papua new Guinea 5mark 1894
I think it's one of the prettiest coins out there.

That's a beauty, Bob!

I’ve always wanted one of these. The one you’re showing is off the charts beautiful.
Congratulations on such an outstanding piece.
