1941-D Walking Liberty Half Dollar
The 1941-D Walking Liberty half dollar design began when Adolph Weinman won a competition held by the Commission of Fine Arts. His prize was the commission to design the half dollar to replace the Barber half dollar and the dime as well. This design wasn’t Weinman’s initial design for the replacement coin. His first designs were rejected before this final design gained final approval. The coin is well struck for a coin from Denver. The silver dollar contains the “D” mint mark on the reverse of the coin. The luster is a beautiful and frosty white.
1941-D Walking Liberty Half Dollar Value
The 1941-D Walking Liberty half dollar value ranges from $9 for a low-grade circulated coin and up to $38 for higher grade uncirculated coins. This coin is available in uncirculated and Gem conditions. Starting in this year, a considerable number of Walking Liberty coins from the Denver mint were saved. However, Denver mint coins for 1941 are more scarce than Philadelphia mint coins so their value is higher. The current value of the silver content makes this coin a bit more valuable to a silver collector if the coin is in poor condition. Both values are still much more than the face value of the coin. The Walking Liberty half dollar key dates do not include the 1941-D Walker.
