This 1916 Walking Liberty Half Dollar, housed in a Retro Old Green PCGS holder and certified at the Gem level, represents a premium-quality example of this highly sought-after first-year issue. Struck in modest numbers for the era—only 608,000 coins—the 1916 Walker holds historic and numismatic significance as the debut of Adolph A. Weinman’s celebrated design. Many survivors were saved as novelties, yet few remain in such original, high-end condition. This example boasts fully struck devices and razor-sharp detail, with Liberty’s gown folds, sun rays, and the eagle’s feathers all crisply defined. The surfaces are richly frosted and covered in a soft, antique patina featuring gentle transitions of champagne-silver, olive-gold, and pewter-gray, accented by hints of russet and peach at the rims. Both obverse and reverse retain satiny luster and untouched skin, free from evidence of cleaning or excessive handling. Minimal abrasions are noted, and the coin’s eye appeal is amplified by its softly glowing texture and natural coloration. The last PR65 CAC sale was in 2024, but now with price guides ranging up to $3,150 (PCGS) and $2,700 (CAC), thanks to increased new CAC bid, these have seen a significant gain recently. Non-CAC are trading for over $2,500, with a non-CAC currently at auction at over $2,760 and many days left. A superior opportunity for type collectors and series specialists alike, combining technical merit, original surfaces, and outstanding presentation in a legacy-generation holder, this coin seems undervalued today.
