1939 Walking Liberty Half Dollar PR-66 PCGS
The 1939 Walking Liberty half dollar represents a remarkable moment in United States coinage, particularly when preserved in proof format. Struck at the Philadelphia Mint, this fifty-cent piece carries no mint mark, which is characteristic of coins produced at the main facility during this era. With a remarkably low mintage of just 8,808 pieces, proof specimens from this year are far more elusive than their standard circulating counterparts. This specific coin is certified in proof condition, graded at PR-66. The high grade highlights the intricate details of the famous Walking Liberty design. Composed of 90 percent silver, the coin contains 0.3575 troy ounces of precious metal. The inscriptions on the coin reflect traditional American numismatic themes. The obverse features the phrase "IN GOD WE TRUST" alongside the 1939 year of issue. The reverse displays the national motto, "E PLURIBUS UNUM," completing a design that remains one of the most celebrated in the history of American coinage.
