The 90% silver Walking Liberty half dollar is one of the most recognized pre-1965 U.S. silver coins in the bullion market. Each coin carries a face value of fifty cents, meaning this $1 face value offering contains two half dollars with a combined silver content of approximately 0.715 troy ounces at .900 fine purity. Struck by the United States Mint, these coins represent a direct entry point into 90% constitutional silver with immediate recognizability and strong market presence.
We carry these coins in Brilliant Uncirculated condition, making this listing well suited for buyers who prioritize sharp detail and minimal wear alongside the intrinsic silver content that drives demand for constitutional silver at the wholesale level.
The Walking Liberty half dollar was produced by the United States Mint from 1916 through 1947, spanning some of the most turbulent decades in American history. The design emerged from a Treasury Department initiative to modernize U.S. coinage, resulting in a series that is widely regarded as one of the finest examples of American numismatic art from that era.

The Walking Liberty half dollar was produced by the United States Mint from 1916 through 1947, spanning some of the most turbulent decades in American history. The design emerged from a Treasury Department initiative to modernize U.S. coinage, resulting in a series that is widely regarded as one of the finest examples of American numismatic art from that era. Adolph A. Weinman won the commission and his Walking Liberty design debuted on both the half dollar and the dime in the same year.
Production ran continuously across the Philadelphia, Denver, and San Francisco mints, with output varying considerably by year and mint mark. After the series ended in 1947, the coin remained in circulation and later transitioned into the secondary market as a staple of the 90% silver category. The design itself was revived decades later as the basis for the American Silver Eagle, reinforcing just how enduring Weinman's original composition has proven to be.
The obverse presents Liberty striding forward, draped in the American flag and reaching toward a rising sun on the horizon. The composition conveys motion and purpose in a way that few coin designs of any era have managed to replicate. The word "LIBERTY" arcs above the figure, and "IN GOD WE TRUST" appears to the left, while the date and mint mark are positioned at the lower edge depending on the year of issue.
The reverse features a bald eagle perched on a mountain crag, wings partially spread and a sapling of mountain pine in the lower field. The inscriptions "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," "E PLURIBUS UNUM," and "HALF DOLLAR" complete the reverse layout. The overall composition on both sides reflects a level of sculptural depth that distinguishes the Walking Liberty from more utilitarian coin designs of the same period.
At 0.715 troy ounces of silver per $1 face value, this offering sits below the one-ounce threshold that defines most modern bullion coins, which works to its advantage in certain buying and selling scenarios. Constitutional silver in half-dollar format allows for more granular allocation without the need to acquire a full ounce at a time. The half dollar denomination also tends to carry strong name recognition among both seasoned buyers and those newer to physical silver.
The $1 face value lot gives buyers a natural unit of measure when accumulating constitutional silver, with two coins per lot making it straightforward to scale up in predictable increments. This format is practical for those building a position in pre-1965 silver over time.
As coins produced by the United States Mint, Walking Liberty half dollars carry the full backing of a sovereign issuing authority with centuries of minting history. The .900 fine silver composition is a federal standard that was applied uniformly across all pre-1965 U.S. silver coinage, making weight and purity verifiable through both physical testing and historical documentation. We verify authenticity and metal content on all products we handle before they are made available for purchase.
Our authorized dealer relationships with PCGS and NGC further reinforce our ability to evaluate and authenticate numismatic material accurately. For Walking Liberty half dollars in BU condition, the strike quality and surface characteristics provide additional reference points for verification, and our team applies the same standards to constitutional silver as to any other category we carry.
Brilliant Uncirculated designates coins that show no signs of circulation wear and retain the full detail and luster from their original minting. BU Walking Liberty half dollars exhibit sharp device definition across Liberty's gown and the eagle's feathers, surfaces that reflect the original die work without the smoothing or flattening that comes from extended circulation. These are not simply high-grade coins in a general sense; BU condition specifically signals that the coin never passed through everyday commerce.
Individual coins ship in protective plastic flips to preserve their condition during transit. Larger quantities are typically packaged in coin tubes consistent with standard half-dollar tube sizing, and bulk orders may ship in sealed boxes depending on quantity. Because these are pre-1965 coins sourced from the secondary market, minor contact marks, light toning, or handling signs may be present even on BU examples, and this is consistent with coins of this age and history. It does not affect the silver content or the market value of the coin.
Walking Liberty half dollars are priced based on the current spot price of silver applied to their 0.715 troy ounce silver content per $1 face value. The premium above spot reflects the additional demand that BU examples command relative to circulated 90% silver, as well as the broader supply dynamics that govern constitutional silver availability in the secondary market. Pre-1965 U.S. silver does not benefit from ongoing mint production, which means supply is finite and sourced entirely from existing coin stock.
Our pricing reflects real-time market conditions and is structured to remain transparent and consistent. The bid/ask spread displayed on our product page provides a complete picture of acquisition cost relative to current resale value, which we believe is essential context for any purchase decision involving physical silver.
Constitutional silver in half-dollar format is among the most widely traded pre-1965 silver in the secondary market. The Walking Liberty series in particular carries broad recognition among dealers, collectors, and silver buyers, which contributes to consistent demand across market conditions. Standardized silver content and a federally established purity standard make these coins straightforward to evaluate and price on resale.
We operate a two-way market that allows customers to both purchase and sell within the same platform using competitive buyback pricing. Considering liquidity before making a purchase is a core part of how we think about the buying process, and constitutional silver in BU condition holds a well-established place in that market.
The Walking Liberty half dollar occupies a distinct position in the constitutional silver market because it combines genuine numismatic appeal with straightforward silver content. BU examples carry meaningful collector interest on top of their intrinsic silver value, which distinguishes them from well-worn circulated pieces that trade purely on metal content. For buyers who want 90% silver that also carries aesthetic and historical merit, the Walking Liberty in BU condition is a logical choice.
The $1 face value format makes it easy to purchase in a defined unit without overcommitting on a single transaction. And because Walking Liberty half dollars are among the most recognized pre-1965 U.S. coins in existence, they carry inherent familiarity that simplifies both storage and eventual resale without requiring the buyer to explain or justify what they own.
We have built our reputation around transparency, accurate product presentation, and a buying experience that does not rely on pressure or marketing inflated claims. Our pricing reflects live market conditions, and we display the full bid/ask spread on every product page so customers understand the complete cost picture before they commit. That level of clarity is something we consider non-negotiable, not optional.
Our A rating with the Better Business Bureau, membership in both the ANA and the NCBA, and our authorized dealer status with PCGS and NGC reflect a long-term commitment to operating with integrity across every part of the business. Whether you are buying your first constitutional silver lot or adding to an existing position, our fulfillment process, customer support, and authentication standards are designed to give you confidence from the moment of purchase through delivery.
Bullion Standard Pro members access live, executable wholesale bid and ask pricing on Walking Liberty half dollars and the broader constitutional silver market, rather than static retail prices that may not reflect current supply and demand conditions. Pro also provides real-time portfolio valuation based on current wholesale bid prices, giving members a more accurate view of what their holdings are actually worth in today's market rather than an estimate derived from retail reference prices.
For constitutional silver specifically, where premiums can shift meaningfully based on availability and collector demand for BU examples, having access to historical premium analysis and spread data through our proprietary research tools adds real context to any purchase decision. Pro is designed for buyers who want to evaluate products using objective market data rather than marketing-driven framing.
We support a wide range of payment methods to make the process of buying constitutional silver as straightforward as possible. Accepted options include Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover, PayPal, bank-connected payments through Plaid, wire transfer, paper check, and cryptocurrency via BitPay. Each method is integrated with a secure transaction environment designed to protect your information and ensure reliable order processing from checkout through delivery.
