1941-D 50c

Coin / United States of America / 1941 / Denver / Walking Liberty Halves / 50c

The 1941-D is a type coin for the Denver Mint Issues in the Walking Liberty Half Dollar Series that as a whole are slightly scarcer than their Philadelphia Mint counterparts. It is readily available in Mint State including gem grades up to MS67, at which point it gets a bit tough. The finest MS68 is rare as just a handful exist. Overall, the issue is very attractive with strong strikes and blazing white luster.
