This is the ultimate type as it is the most common among San Francisco Mint Walking Liberty Half Dollars. Plentiful in all grades except MS67, which is scarcer yet still available. The strike is solid for this issue considering its Mint. It is known for easy access to white gems with blazing luster.

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.
