      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 1938-D is quite unique within the Walking Liberty Half Dollar Series as circulated grades are rare and Mint State pieces are simply scarce. Only the 1921 and 1921-D have lower mintages as just 491,600 of this date were struck (minuscule for this era of this series). Overall, the issue is very attractive with strong strikes and white luster.
