Third-Lowest Mintage Walking Liberty Half Dollar
Thee Walking Liberty Half Dollar design has long been considered to exemplify the spirit and pride of America with a design so “American,” it was chosen for the United States American Silver Eagle series that started in 1986. This one, struck at the Denver Mint, is popular among collectors because it is from the third lowest mintage in the entire series with only 491,600 struck. Overall, the Denver Mint only struck 18% of the total mintage of Walking Liberty Half-Dollars during the coin’s run from 1916-1947. Struck in highly pure 90% fine silver, yours will arrive in Good to Very Good (G-VG) condition, meaning the overall design and “D” mint mark are visible.
A Staple Of American History
Designed by German-born American sculptor Adolph A. Weinman, these coins were affectionately known as “Walkers.” They are a staple of American history and are even more popular today than when they circulated during the first half of the 20th Century. Through the ravages of time, however, many Walking Liberty Half-Dollars wore out in circulation or were thrown into the melting pots for their precious silver. What remains today is likely only a very small fraction of the total mintage.
