1941 Walking Liberty Silver Half Dollar Coin 1941 Walking Liberty Silver Half Dollar US Coin This 1941 Walking Liberty half dollar is a classic piece of American numismatic history, struck in 90% silver. The obverse features the iconic full-length figure of Liberty enveloped in the folds of the flag, striding toward the dawn of a new day, while the reverse showcases a majestic bald eagle perched upon a mountain crag. This particular specimen displays honest circulation wear with visible details in the high points of the design. Minted in Philadelphia, as evidenced by the lack of a mint mark on the reverse, this coin remains a favorite among collectors for its artistic beauty and precious metal content. The coin is housed in a protective flip for preservation. 1941 Walking Liberty Silver Half Dollar Condition: This coin shows significant signs of circulation and wear across both the obverse and reverse. The fine details in Lady Liberty's gown, the branches, and the eagle's feathers are flattened, and the surfaces exhibit various small scratches and a dark patina consistent with age and use. The mint mark is absent, indicating it was struck at the Philadelphia Mint. It is composed of 90% silver and 10% copper. The Walking Liberty design, created by Adolph A. Weinman, is widely considered one of the most beautiful in American numismatics and was issued during the pivotal year the United States entered World War II. This is a business strike type coin and is not professionally graded.
