1917-S Walking Liberty Half Dollar. Obverse Mintmark. MS-65 (NGC). CAC. This is a lovely example of a leading condition rarity among Walking Liberty half dollars. Both sides are dusted with lovely champagne-pink iridescence that provides strong eye appeal. The strike is impressively sharp with full detail to all but a few isolated design features. Satiny with the characteristic stippled texture of an early date half dollar of this type, the surfaces are exceptionally well preserved and worthy of the Gem Mint State grade. This issue keeps company with eight others in the Walking Liberty series that had mintages of fewer than one million pieces. Though easily located in grades from AU to MS-63 or so, the 1917-S Obverse Mintmark is rare at the present level of preservation. From the Larry H. Miller Collection. From the Larry H.
