This is one of three known Walking Liberty Half Dollars double struck at the San Francisco Mint. The other two were sold by Heritage Auctions for $41,125 and $32,900.
This double strike is fresh to the market, was not known, and is actually struck 85% off-center, not 90%. It is lightly circulated with original surfaces. The positioning of the design of the double strike on the obverse and reverse is aesthetically perfect, showing Walking Liberty’s head on the obverse and the denomination HALF DOLLAR on the reverse. The second strike of the Heritage example that sold for $32,900 was also positioned at 6:00 and has a very similar look.
An extremely rare San Francisco Mint Walking Liberty Half striking and perfect for a collection of Walking Liberty Half Dollars or mint errors.
