BTW, what’s the deal with the 2016 1/2 oz gold WL? Too expensive? With a mintage of 70K I was wondering why it hasn’t sold out. Looks purty…I saw a sale today that has the 2016-W 1/2 oz Gold Walking Liberty Half Dollar Centennial (w/OGP) for ~$140.00 less than the Mint. Too long on the shelf maybe? Not cheap but is it worth it 20 years down the road when my grandchildren sell it to buy a college textbook?

Wish they would come up with a different reverse like they do with the SAC dollar. (Maybe every 5 years?)

I agree totally – the Walking Liberty design is fantastic! (on the original half dollars & on the ASE $1 coins).

Happy collecting!

I’ve always loved the way the walking liberty design flows on the coin. Poetry in motion!

Also, it doesn’t state in this article, but the reverse has the inscription “E Pluribus Unum”.
Also, this coin has a special “burnished” finish which is totally different from the bullion version.
