1941 Walking Liberty Half Dollar AU
The 1941 Walking Liberty half dollar stands as a testament to classic American coinage design. Struck in 90% silver, this fifty-cent piece contains 0.3575 troy ounces of precious metal. It represents a fascinating era of United States coinage, minted in Philadelphia just before the nation entered the Second World War. On the obverse side, the figure of Lady Liberty is depicted in mid-stride, moving gracefully toward a rising sun while cradling a bundle of branches in her arm. The reverse features a powerful eagle perched upon a rocky outcrop, wings slightly spread as if preparing to take flight. Designed by Adolph Weinman, this coin's imagery remains some of the most celebrated in numismatic history, combining natural beauty with national symbolism.
