1918-D Walking Liberty Half Dollar. MS-64 (PCGS). OGH. This frosty and overall boldly defined example displays golden-gray iridescence that is warmer on the obverse. Produced during the final year of World War One when the United States economy was still strong, the 1918-D had a generous mintage of 3.8 million pieces. The demands of commerce were great, however, and the vast majority entered circulation at the time of issue and remained there until heavily worn or lost. The result is that the 1918-D is now numbered among the rarer Walking Liberty half dollars even in lower Mint State grades. The typical Uncirculated survivor is limited in grade by subdued luster, excessive surface abrasions and/or soft striking detail in and around the centers. This is an above average Choice example that will appeal to many advanced specialists in this series. From the Larry H. Miller Collection. From the Larry H. Miller Collection.
