The 1929-D, 1929-S and 1933-S (1938-D aside) are the last of the Walking Liberty Halves that are worth more than melt at very low grades. At just over a million minted of the 1929-D’s, which is actually relatively low, all uncirculated grades are extremely common. Mint State grades up to and including MS66 are scarce; but the small handful of MS67’s are actually very rare. Luster, toning and strike are all average for this issue. Except for some gems which can be quite lustrous.
Obverse Description
Liberty portrayed standing on a rock, facing left, with flowing robes and her right hand outstretched with a star-covered drapery flowing behind her. I bright sun, with extended rays is rising from the horizon on the lower left. The word LIBERTY frames the periphery and date appears at the bottom center. and the motto IN GOD WE TRUST is in the right field.
Reverse Description
A large eagle perched on a rock, facing left with wings elevated in a defensive posture. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and HALF DOLLAR appear on the periphery. The motto E PLURIBUS UNUM sits atop a small olive branch left of the eagle. The mintmark is small, and placed below the olive branch near the left rim.
