Up for auction/sale is a wonderful vintage 20th-century silver classic from the United States Mint—a 1942 Walking Liberty Half Dollar struck at the Philadelphia Mint (no mint mark), preserved in About Uncirculated (AU Details) condition with brilliant white surfaces and a note for possible old cleaning.

Struck in 90% coin silver during the opening months of America's entry into World War II, this iconic design by Adolph A. Weinman features Lady Liberty striding confidently toward the dawn on the obverse and a majestic American bald eagle poised on a mountain crag on the reverse. Preserved with exceptional eye appeal and brilliant luster, this specimen displays strong design details throughout, accompanied by bright white surfaces that suggest a possible past cleaning in its history.
