Description

1945-D Walking Liberty Half Dollar, PCGS MS67. This exceptional 1945-D Walking Liberty Half Dollar represents a standout example from the final year of this iconic series. Struck at the Denver Mint during the closing months of World War II, this coin displays the hallmarks of superior quality that characterize the best Denver Mint Walkers from the 1941-1945 period. The PCGS certification of MS67 places this piece among the finest known, with only three examples graded higher across all populations tracked by PCGS (70 total graded). The 1945-D is particularly prized by collectors for its potential to exhibit spectacular white frosty luster and well-executed strike characteristics. This example showcases the artistic vision of designer Adolph Alexander Weinman, whose Liberty and eagle designs remain among the most beloved in American numismatic history. Composed of 90% silver and 10% copper, the coin retains its original brilliance and eye appeal. The reeded edge and full specifications of 12.5 grams and 30mm diameter confirm proper specifications. While the 1945-D had a substantial mintage of nearly 10 million pieces, finding examples in gem condition with the quality and eye appeal of this specimen is considerably more challenging. This coin represents an outstanding opportunity to acquire a genuinely superb example of the final year of the Walking Liberty series, suitable for advanced type collectors or those seeking the finest examples of Denver Mint production from this era.
