The 1929-D, 1929-S and 1933-S (1938-D aside) are the last of the Walking Liberty Halves that are worth more than melt at very low grades. At just over a million minted of the 1929-Ds, which is actually relatively low, all uncirculated grades are extremely common. Mint State grades up to and including MS66 are scarce; but the small handful of MS67s are actually very rare. Luster, toning and strike are all average for this issue. Except for some gems which can be quite lustrous.
