1941–1947-PDS Walking Liberty Half Dollar 20-pc "Short Set” PCGS MS65

A Complete “Short Set” Of Walking Liberty’s Last Years

The Walking Liberty Half Dollar was struck from 1916 to 1947. In total, that works out to 65 different dates and mint marks within the entire series. This “short set” consists of nearly a third of those coins, including each date and mint mark struck in the series from 1941 to 1947, the last seven years the Walking Liberty was issued, including those struck from 1941 to 1945 during World War II.

Adolph Weinman’s Iconic Walking Liberty design

Struck in 90% fine silver, these coins are affectionately known to many collectors as “Walkers.” 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!

Certified, Graded, And Encapsulated In Gem Uncirculated Condition

This patriotic design always proved difficult to strike, meaning that finding these coins in nice condition can be difficult. But not only have we put together a complete set of the last seven years of this classic American coin, but it’s been certified, graded, and encapsulated by the Professional Coin Grading Service (PCGS) as being in gorgeous Gem Uncirculated Mint State-65 (MS65) condition!
