1939 Walking Liberty Half Dollar MS-64 PCGS
The 1939 Walking Liberty half dollar represents a high point in United States coinage design. Struck in 90% silver, this fifty-cent piece carries a precious metal weight of 0.3575 troy ounces. This specific specimen has been certified in Mint State 64 (MS-64) condition, preserving the intricate details of its mid-century craftsmanship. On the obverse, Lady Liberty is depicted in mid-stride, moving gracefully toward a rising sun while cradling branches in her arm. The legendary phrase "IN GOD WE TRUST" is clearly visible alongside her figure. The reverse displays a powerful eagle perched upon a mountain crag, its wings partially unfurled in a dramatic pose. The traditional motto "E PLURIBUS UNUM" and the denomination "HALF DOLLAR" are boldly inscribed on this side, completing a design conceived by the artist Adolph A. Weinman.
