I think the Walking Liberty or the Capped Bust would be mine. I just can't choose which one I like better between the two

I think the Walking Liberty is perhaps the most beautiful US coin minted.

I think I like the capped bust the most. Sure, the Walker is considered by most everyone to be a very beautiful coin including me. It is as if the US had arrived and in fact it did in those years. There's something a little more determined in the design of the capped bust half, it seems to speak of overcoming the struggles of the earlier years with optimism. Then on a lighter side .... maybe I am just a fan of the cleavage?  |

Love the Walking Liberty, but a Draped Bust half would still turn my head from any Walker.

I also love the 1853 seated, the rays on the reverse make it in my opinion the most interesting and unique (not most rare or valuable) coin in my collection, and out of the half dollars.

I have to go with the Walking Liberty. It's my favorite coin overall.

NO, NO. It's 50 1909S VDB's Cents. This should have been a poll. Although I think the Walking Liberty would win such a poll. What? No votes for the Kennedy half? |
