1921 Walking Liberty Half Dollar VG-8 PCGS
The 1921 Walking Liberty half dollar is a standout issue within one of America's most celebrated silver coin series. Struck in 90% fine silver, this coin contains 0.3575 troy ounces of precious metal. It is highly sought after by enthusiasts due to its remarkably low mintage of just 246,000 pieces, making it a scarce survivor from the early 1920s. The obverse features a graceful depiction of Liberty moving toward a rising sun, cradling branches in her arm. This iconic image represents hope and forward progress. On the reverse, a powerful eagle stands perched on a mountain crag with its wings partially unfurled, showcasing a bold, naturalistic depiction of American strength. This particular specimen is certified in Very Good 8 (VG-8) condition, preserving the essential details of Adolph Weinman's legendary design. The inscriptions on this series include the country name and the face value, rendered as "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" and "HALF DOLLAR."
