The San Francisco and Denver Mint issues from 1937 have very similar mintages that are within a few hundred thousand of each other; and, thus comparable rarity. It is second to the 1939-S as the most common 1930’s San Francisco Mint issue and readily available in Mint State grades through MS66. Only MS67’s are in any way scarce. It is known to have notable luster as well as a strong strike unusual for Walkers out of San Francisco.
Obverse Description
Liberty portrayed standing on a rock, facing left, with flowing robes and her right hand outstretched with a star-covered drapery flowing behind her. I bright sun, with extended rays is rising from the horizon on the lower left. The word LIBERTY frames the periphery and date appears at the bottom center. and the motto IN GOD WE TRUST is in the right field.
Reverse Description
A large eagle perched on a rock, facing left with wings elevated in a defensive posture. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and HALF DOLLAR appear on the periphery. The motto E PLURIBUS UNUM sits atop a small olive branch left of the eagle. The mintmark is small, and placed below the olive branch near the left rim.
