As early Walking Liberty Half Dollars go, the 1920 is known for a strong strike but average luster. The coin is quite common into the Mint State range; at which, the coin, until MS64, is scarce but relatively easy to find. As a gem, MS65, it is a very scarce issue in MS65 and only considered rare in its finest MS66 and MS66 .
Obverse Description
Liberty portrayed standing on a rock, facing left, with flowing robes and her right hand outstretched with a star-covered drapery flowing behind her. I bright sun, with extended rays is rising from the horizon on the lower left. The word LIBERTY frames the periphery and date appears at the bottom center. and the motto IN GOD WE TRUST is in the right field.
Reverse Description
A large eagle perched on a rock, facing left with wings elevated in a defensive posture. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and HALF DOLLAR appear on the periphery. The motto E PLURIBUS UNUM sits atop a small olive branch left of the eagle.
