1940–1947 Walking Liberty Half Dollar BU

Quality Walking Liberty Half Dollar!

Considered by many to feature America’s most beautiful coin design, the Walking Liberty Half Dollar exemplifies American spirit and pride, with Miss Liberty walking toward the sun on the obverse and a bold eagle with outspread wings on the reverse. In fact, the design also graces the American Silver Eagle Dollar, the best-selling coin on the planet. It was 77 years ago the last classic Walking Liberty Half Dollar rolled off the presses in 1947. Revered by collectors, this coin is seen as the ultimate triumph of coin design.

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, large numbers of 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.
