1936-D Walking Liberty Half Dollar G–VG

Run, Don’t Walk, To Get One Of These Vintage “Walkers”
Considered by many to feature America’s most beautiful coin design, the Walking Liberty Half Dollar exemplifies American spirit and pride, with Miss Liberty walking toward the sun on the obverse and a bold eagle with outspread wings on the reverse. In fact, the design also graces the American Silver Eagle Dollar, the best-selling coin on the planet.
Here you can secure one of these beauties—ideal for starting your own collection or as a gift to a young collector to start his or her own collection. It was struck in 1936 at the Denver Mint, a United States branch mint that struck just 18% of the entire Walking Liberty Series. Plus, each coin available here will come in Good to Very Good (G–VG) condition! Denver struck 4,252,400 Walking Liberty Half Dollars in 1936 compared to 12,614,000 at the “Mother Mint” in Philadelphia.
A Staple Of American History
Struck in highly pure 90% fine silver, this coin is affectionately known to many collectors as a “Walker.” With its iconic images, the Walking Liberty Half Dollar is surely one of the most beautiful coins ever struck by the United States Mint. Lady Liberty is shown striding towards the sun, her right hand open and outstretched as if in invitation. In her left arm is a bouquet of olive branches. The coin’s reverse depicts a stylistic eagle standing on a rock ready to take flight. A mountain pine sapling springs from the rock, symbolizing America. Famously designed by Adolph A. Weinman, the Walking Liberty is so iconic and beloved that it was resurrected in 1986 as the obverse for today’s Silver Eagles! This patriotic design always proved difficult to strike, meaning that finding circulated specimens in nice condition can be difficult.
Nice Walkers Can Be Difficult To Find
This patriotic design always proved difficult to strike, however, meaning that finding circulated specimens in nice condition can be difficult. In addition, many Walking Liberty Half-Dollars wore out in circulation or were thrown into the melting pots for their precious silver. The simple ravages of time over the past 75 years since the last Walkers were struck has also reduced the number of coins available to today’s collectors.
The Walking Liberty Half Dollar exemplifies American spirit and pride. Every collector should have one of these big, beautiful coins in their collection. Here’s a perfect opportunity to launch yourself on a collecting journey or to get a young collector started in the hobby. This coin may be a “Walker,” but you’ll want to run to get one!
