The final Philadelphia Mint issue in this series, the 1947 Walking Liberty Half Dollar is an underrated coin much like the 1946. It is rarer than the 1941, 1942, 1943, 1944 and 1945, as well as the 1941-D, 1943-D, 1944-D, 1945-D, 1946-D and 1946-S in the finer Mint State grades. Even so, one should have little difficulty locating an example that falls into the MS-60 to MS-66 grade range, although MS-66s are somewhat scarce from a market availability standpoint. Superb Gems in MS-67 and MS-67+ are nothing short of rare.
