1919-D Walking Liberty Half Dollar G–VG

1919-D Walking Liberty Half Dollars

The Walking Liberty Half-Dollar is revered by collectors across the United States and around the world. It is often pointed to as the ultimate triumph of American coin design—in fact, when the U.S. Mint launched its hugely successful Silver Eagle series, the majestic Walking Liberty image was selected! Struck in 1919 at the Denver Mint, this highly pure 90% fine silver coin comes from a mintage of just 1.165 million—compared to more than 12 million struck at the Philadelphia Mint. Just 17.92% of the entire series were struck in Denver. Yours will arrive in Good to Very Good (G–VG) condition.

Adolph Weinman’s Iconic Walking Liberty Design

This coin is affectionately known to many collectors as a “Walker.” With its iconic images, the Walking Liberty Half Dollar is surely one of the most beautiful coins ever struck by the U.S. Mint. Famously designed by Adolph A. Weinman, Lady Liberty is shown striding towards the sun, her right hand open and outstretched as if in invitation. In her left arm is a bouquet of olive branches. The coin’s reverse depicts a stylistic eagle standing on a rock ready to take flight. A mountain pine sapling springs from the rock, symbolizing America.

Nice Walkers Can Be Difficult To Find

This patriotic design always proved difficult to strike, however, meaning that finding circulated specimens in nice condition can be difficult. In addition, many Walking Liberty Half-Dollars wore out in circulation or were thrown into the melting pots for their precious silver. The simple ravages of time over the past 75 years since the last Walkers were struck has also reduced the number of coins available to today’s collectors.

The Walking Liberty Half Dollar exemplifies American spirit and pride. Every collector should have one of these big, beautiful coins in their collection. Here’s a perfect opportunity to launch yourself on a collecting journey or to get a young collector started in the hobby. This 1919-D Walking Liberty Half Dollar may be a “Walker,” but you’ll want to run to get one!
