Design Legacy
Designed by Adolph A. Weinman, the Walking Liberty Half Dollar (1916–1947) is widely regarded as one of the most beautiful U.S. coin designs ever produced. Its influence lives on today as the obverse of the modern American Silver Eagle—making every original Walking Liberty a direct link to America’s most iconic silver bullion coin.
