Lot Description

1921-D Walking Liberty Half Dollar. AU-55 (PCGS). An uncommonly high grade example of this eagerly sought Walking Liberty half dollar issue. Brilliant surfaces are satiny in texture with sharp to full striking detail to virtually all design elements. With a mere 208,000 pieces produced, the 1921-D boasts the lowest mintage among circulation strikes of this popular and widely collected type. The typical survivor in numismatic circles is well worn and grades no finer than VF. Attractive AU examples such as this are scarce and, with the 1921-D ranked as a leading rarity for its type in Mint State, this coin is sure to have no difficulty finding its way into an advanced Walking Liberty half dollar set. Provenance: From the John Whitney Walter Collection. PCGS# 6584. NGC ID: 24R7. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
