Coin Highlights:
This 1933-S Walking Liberty Half Dollar is a Mint State 67 specimen, indicating the presence of strong mint luster and no more than three or four minor detractions. This piece features an obverse field that is largely untoned with crisp, well-defined design elements. The reverse is bright white with a sharp, satin detail and vibrant frost.
The obverse of the 1933-S Walking Liberty Half Dollar is a depiction of Lady Liberty. This famous design from Adolph A. Weinman captures Liberty’s full-length figure in left-profile relief as she walks toward the sun. With the American flag draped around her shoulders, she extends her right hand toward the horizon as her left hand clutches the branches of oak and laurel.
On the reverse of 1933-S Walking Liberty Half Dollars, you’ll find an American bald eagle. Also designed by Weinman, this visual shows the eagle in a slight left-profile relief as it prepares to take flight from a mountaintop perch.
This coin’s mintage of 1,786,000 pieces came during the critical transition year when Franklin D. Roosevelt took office, declared a national bank holiday, and took the United States off the gold standard. The coin itself carries particular poignancy as a symbol of an economy in crisis, minted in a year when deflation was rampant, thousands of banks had failed, and millions of Americans faced poverty and uncertainty.
