Description
The 1941 (S) Walking Liberty Half Dollar is a half dollar produced at the San Francisco Mint as part of the Walking Liberty Half Dollars 1916-1947 series. With a mintage of 8.1 million, this is a less common issue — the lowest mintage among 3 mint variants, representing only 19% of total production. The obverse features Liberty striding confidently toward the sunrise, draped in the American flag, carrying branches of laurel and oak symbolizing civil and military glory and the reverse displays an eagle perched on a mountain crag with wings partially unfurled, a sapling of mountain pine growing beside it. Beginning of the "short set" commonly collected from 1941 to 1947. Struck at the San Francisco Mint, established during the California Gold Rush and now primarily producing proof and collector coins. Estimated market value ranges from $39 to $171 depending on grade and condition. Struck in 90% silver, 10% copper, weighing 12.5 grams, 30 mm in diameter, with a reeded edge. Cataloged as PCGS #6613.
