1927-S Walking Liberty Half Dollar High Grade Inventory C For Sale

1927-S Walking Liberty Half Dollar | High Grade Preservation | Inventory A

Up for sale is a breathtaking and scarce 1927-S Walking Liberty Half Dollar, cataloged under our stock Inventory A in superior high-grade preservation. Struck at the historic San Francisco Mint during the roaring 1920s, this West Coast branch mint issue is legendary among numismatists for its notoriously soft strikes and extreme scarcity in upper grades. With the vast majority of production released into active circulation throughout the American West where coins saw heavy commerce, finding an authentic specimen in the top tiers of surviving preservation is an extraordinary numismatic achievement. Featuring Adolph A. Weinman\'s iconic and beloved design of Lady Liberty striding toward the dawn on the obverse and a proud American eagle taking flight on the reverse in 90% silver, this magnificent piece represents classic U.S. coinage at its absolute finest. A premier cornerstone addition for any serious walking liberty half dollar series or advanced branch mint collection.

\"We are selling coins, not packaging.\"

• Condition: All outer boxes/envelopes are in \"used\" condition and will show evidence of handling and wear. None of these paper-thin wrapper imperfections affect the coins inside.

• No Cherry-Picking: We do not favor one buyer over another by selecting \"perfect\" wrappers. If you require mint-fresh paper coverings, we cannot service your order.

• The Hard Plastic Cases: These are subject to small stress fractures from the original minting process or natural aging.

• A Note from the 1956 Mint Superintendent (Mrs. Rae V. Biester):

  \"Sooner or later your Proof Coins may show evidence of oxidation (tarnish or discoloration)... we cannot assume responsibility for oxidation. Please do not ask us to make exchanges or adjustments.\"

• Our Position: If the Mint Superintendent issued this warning in 1956, imagine the natural toning that occurs over decades. Metal interacts with air and light from the moment it is struck. We do not expect these coins to look as they did the day they were born, and we hope you don\'t either. The picture is the grade.

• Grading is Opinion: We place zero value on third-party grading opinions (slabs) except for verification of authenticity.

• The Picture is the Grade: We spend thousands of dollars weekly on high-resolution photography. The picture of the coin IS the grade. Please use the enlargement tool to make your own assessment.

• Our Technical Terminology:

  • High Grade: Top 20% of the surviving population.

  • Better Grade: Top 50% of the surviving population.

\"Cleaning is always a matter of degree.\"

• Our View: We buy and sell coins; we leave \"conserving\" to the experts.

• Honesty: If you ask us if a coin has been cleaned, we will give you our honest opinion on its visibility and its likelihood of passing a third-party grading service.

• Policy: We offer a 30-day unconditional return policy with no restocking fee.

• Due Diligence: Please examine photos closely and ask questions before paying to avoid unnecessary returns.

• Cost: The buyer pays for transportation costs unless there is a material mistake in the provided picture.
