      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. The mintmark is small, and placed below the olive branch near the left rim.
      General Notes: The 1928-S finds itself the middle of the 3 Walking Liberty Half Dollars issued between 1921 and 1929 in terms of rarity and strength of strike. Also somewhat similar to the other 2 issues, this one comes with great luster. But it is the toning that sets it apart; as most uncirculated examples have some degree of color. It is common up to AU and tougher in that range. MS60-MS65 are all very scarce with MS66 being the only grade considered truly rare.
