Obverse Text: 1940 | IN GOD WE TRUST
Reverse Text: UNITED STATES OF AMERICA | E PLURIBUS UNUM | HALF DOLLAR | S

With just 4.5 million coins struck, the 1940-S Walking Liberty Half Dollar is among the lower mintage issues of the 1940s, falling well below the 9.1 million coins struck in Philadelphia the same year and also the 8 million struck in San Francisco in 1941. While readily available in Mint State, it is the rarest issue of this era in Gem condition and becomes even scarcer at the Superb level.
