Details

Adolph A Weinman was the winner a national competition to design the new US half dollar. Born in southern Germany in the city of Karlsruhe he move here with his mother and became a prominent US sculptor under the guidance of the famous August St Gaudens. The face of the coin is a full figure of Lady Liberty in a long gown with an American flag across her shoulders and billowing around her. She is walking while looking to the left with her hand held open before her and in her left hand are olive branches the symbol of peace. The sun rises from the lower left. The design for the reverse is an American eagle perched on a rock in a defiant stance. The coin is considered one of the most beautiful in the history of American coinage and was used as the basis for the American Silver Eagle bullion coins.
