Description:
This 1918 Walking Liberty Half Dollar, graded XF40 (Extra Fine) by PCGS, showcases the iconic artistry of early 20th-century American coinage. The obverse features Liberty striding confidently toward the sunrise, draped in the American flag and holding branches of laurel and oak, symbols of civil and military glory. The reverse depicts a majestic eagle perched on a rock, wings partially spread, with a mountain pine sapling growing nearby, symbolizing renewal and resilience. The inscriptions include "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," "HALF DOLLAR," and "E PLURIBUS UNUM." Designed by Adolph A. Weinman, this coin represents one of the most beloved designs in U.S. numismatics.
