Description

Details

Overview In 1915, United States Mint Director Robert W. Woolley commissioned three noted sculptors to design three silver coins – the Mercury dime, the Standing Liberty quarter and the Walking Liberty half dollar (AKA “Liberty Walking" or “Walker). A. A. Weinman was awarded the designs for both the dime and the half dollar.

Design The coin’s obverse (front) shows Lady Liberty cloaked in the U.S. flag and walking toward a new day, carrying laurel and oak branches. “IN GOD WE TRUST” is right of her calf. The Walking Liberty half dollars are the last regular-issue silver coins with Lady Liberty, but the United States Mint copied the design for its silver American Eagle bullion coins. The reverse has an American bald eagle with spread wings. Weinman’s initials, AAW, are under its wing tip. The eagle perches on a rocky crag with pine sapling growing in the cracks. The mint mark is below the pine sapling for all coins struck after 1917, before which it was on the obverse, under the motto.

Minting Walking Liberty half dollars were minted from 1916-1947, except for 1922, 1924-26 and 1930-32.

Augusta does not provide legal, tax, or investment advice. The Augusta® Gold IRA is a self-directed IRA containing physical precious metals administered by a third-party custodian and stored in an approved non-government depository storage facility where investors can make an appointment to see their precious metals. The Augusta® Home Delivery™ Gold IRA is a self-directed physical precious metals IRA stored at home or in a safe deposit box. Augusta's attorneys believe that American Eagle coins may be stored at home and that all other IRA-held coins must be stored, at a minimum, in a safe deposit box at a U.S. bank. However, these attorneys believe it is wiser to store all IRA precious metals in a safe deposit box at a U.S. bank to eliminate risks associated with home storage. The IRS has not provided clear guidance on home delivery or home or safe deposit box storage of IRA precious metals. If your home delivery gold IRA is not set up properly, if you engage in a prohibited transaction (e.g., withdrawing metals before retirement to use for any other purpose), or if it is determined that home delivery or home or bank safe deposit box storage are not permitted by the IRS, you could lose your tax-exempt status and have to pay taxes and penalties. As with any investment, past performance might not predict future returns. The price of precious metals fluctuates over time and investors might lose money. It is important to consult your own legal and financial advisors before buying from Augusta.
