The Silver Walking Liberty Silver Round Product Details & History

Walking Liberty (obverse) – Between 1916 and 1947 the United States minted what is widely regarded as one of the most beautiful coin designs ever. Originally, the Walking Silver Liberty half dollar coin design was created by Adolph A. Weinman, who was also the designer of the popular Mercury Dime. The current "American Silver Eagle Coin" has a similar design on the obverse. These silver bullion rounds are much larger and contain almost three times as much silver as the Walking Liberty half dollar, which only contains 0.357 ounces of silver after factoring out the copper (which is 10% of its overall weight).

Perched Eagle (reverse) – The perched eagle is a popular rendition placed on numerous United States Mint silver coins, beginning in 1795 and becoming more prevalent in the mid-1800s. Each silver round is branded in the Money Metals Exchange name and stamped with its guaranteed weight of one troy ounce of .999 fine silver. These privately minted rounds are not legal tender and differ in numerous ways from any government-minted 1 oz coin. And they are clearly marked with the Money Metals Exchange brand to further ensure there is no confusion with any coin or numismatic item.
