Weinman's "Walking Liberty" half dollar, produced from 1916 to 1947. It is widely considered one of the most beautiful American coins ever minted. In 2021, the U.S. Mint marked the 35th anniversary of the American Eagle Coin Program with a refreshed design. Thanks to technological advancements in the design and minting process, the design now encompasses some of Weinman's original details that were not previously possible." My question is were the new Reverse Design and missing reeds from the edge Weinmans idea or are there other changes? Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 98648 Posts	Posted 06/06/2024 3:09 pm The missing reed from the edge was an added security protocol ( among others that we don't know about). No it was not Weinman's idea. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

The original ASE reverse was designed by John Mercanti, the new and current reverse by Emily Damstra. I do not believe they were inspired by his Half Dollar reverse (other than having an eagle).
