1929-D Walking Liberty Half Dollar (50c)

The 1929-D Walking Liberty Half Dollar was produced during the tumultuous year that marked the beginning of the Great Depression. While many coins from this era were lost to melting during the economic crisis, the Denver mint produced a respectable quantity of these halves just before the stock market crash that would change America's economic landscape for years to come.

This coin, graded AU58 by PCGS and bearing CAC approval, sits just below mint state classification with only the slightest traces of wear on the highest points. The surfaces display an attractive natural silver-gray patina with underlying luster that still flashes prominently when rotated in the light. The eye appeal is exceptional, with clean fields and sharp details throughout Liberty's flowing gown and the eagle's wing feathers. The CAC endorsement confirms this coin's superior quality within its grade - truly a premium example that just narrowly missed a full mint state designation.
