Displayed on the front of each half-dollar is Adolph Weinman’s eponymous Walking Liberty design. This inspiring rendition depicts Lady Liberty marching across an open field, classically garbed in a Phrygian cap and a toga bearing the stars and stripes of the US flag. In one hand, she carries a bundle of laurel and oak branches in reference to America’s abundant resources. The other hand extends in a gesture of welcome towards the rising sun, symbolizing not only the generosity with which the US shares its abundance, but also the hope that this generosity inspires in those who immigrate to this country. The optimism of this piece is further emphasized by the inscription of “In God We Trust” that appears to right of Lady Liberty.
The reverse side of the coin has been embossed with a striking image of the US’s national bird, the bald eagle. In this image, the proud bird is portrayed in a rather dignified stance as it perches upon a mountain summit. It is encircled by a ring of text, which includes the coin’s country of issue and denomination. The olive branch that protrudes from its left most talon represents the peace that has sustained the unity of this nation for so long. Further contributing to this message are the words “E Pluribus Unum” that appear directly in front of the eagle.
