1921-S Walking Liberty Half Dollar Good
The 1921-S Walking Liberty half dollar represents a fascinating moment in United States coinage history. Struck at the San Francisco Mint, this fifty-cent piece is composed of 90 percent silver, containing 0.3575 troy ounces of the precious metal. Even in Good condition, the coin retains the essential elements of one of America's most celebrated circulating designs. Created by the sculptor Adolph Weinman, the obverse of the coin presents a powerful image of Lady Liberty moving gracefully toward a rising sun. She is depicted carrying a bundle of branches, symbolizing strength and peace. The reverse displays a detailed eagle perched firmly upon a mountain crag, wings slightly raised as if preparing to take flight. This combination of patriotic imagery makes the series a favorite for those exploring twentieth-century American numismatics.
