This 1940 Walking Liberty Half Dollar is a fine example of classic U.S. coinage, showcasing Adolph A. Weinman's iconic design. The obverse features Lady Liberty striding confidently toward the rising sun, holding branches of laurel and oak, symbols of peace and strength. The reverse depicts a majestic bald eagle perched on a rock, complementing the coin’s bold "E Pluribus Unum" motto. This silver coin represents a pivotal era in American history, making it both a collector's gem and a solid silver investment.
The Walking Liberty design, minted from 1916 to 1947, is celebrated as one of the most beautiful in U.S. history. The year 1940 marks a pre-WWII America, reflecting the nation's enduring values of liberty and progress during challenging times.
This coin appeals to silver investors, U.S. history enthusiasts, and serious numismatists. Its beauty and significance also make it an ideal gift for history buffs or coin collectors.
The coin is in circulated condition, showing some signs of wear consistent with its age. The details on Lady Liberty and the eagle remain distinct, but prospective bidders should expect natural toning and wear. Measurements: Standard U.S. half-dollar diameter and weight of 12.50 grams.
This Walking Liberty Half Dollar is a remarkable piece for collectors and investors alike. Please bid confidently, keeping in mind this is an estate auction and all sales are final.
